GeoTAX can enhance standard address matching by matching to building and business names.
By default, GeoTAX is able to match building names with unit numbers in the address line, the Chrysler building as an example:
Firm:Address: 5001 Chrysler BldgLast Line: New York New York 10174
The returned information is the address of the Chrysler building. GeoTAX returns a standardized address in place of the building name:
Firm:Address: 405 LEXINGTON AVE RM 5001Last Line: NEW YORK, NY 10174-5002
Entering the White House, as an example, into the address line, the address for the White House returns in the address field:
Firm:Address: White HouseLast Line: Washington DC 20500
GeoTAX returns the following address:
Firm:Address: 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE NWLast Line: WASHINGTON DC 20500-0004
Entering a firm name in the Firm name field returns the address for the input firm in the address field:
Firm: White HouseAddress:Last Line: Washington DC 20500
GeoTAX returns the following address:
Firm: WHITE HOUSEAddress: 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE NWLast Line: WASHINGTON DC 20500-0004
