The category of the postal data used to validate the address. Always returns "A" for U.S. addresses. Category A means that the postal data is sufficient to validate and correct addresses, including providing missing postal code, city name, state/county name, street address elements, and country name.

The address matched to an address in the EWS data so the match was denied.

The address did not match to an address in the EWS data.

ExpirationDate

11

Date the database expires, in the format MM/DD/YYYY.

Geocoder.MatchCode

4

Indicates how closely the input address matches the candidate address.

Note: The match codes returned in this field are different from the match codes described in Match Codes. Instead, the match codes returned in this field are taken from a set of match codes that are compatible with all other country geocoders. For more information, see Result Codes for International Geocoding.

Record matching score (for multimatches only).

Intersection

2

Indicates if the input address matched to a cross-street.

T
True
F
False

01
Basic index (normal address match)
02
USPS street name alias index
03
USPS building index
04
USPS firm name index
05
Statewide intersection alias match
06

Indicates whether or not the address was a unique match or if there were candidate addresses.

Y
Yes, the address is a close match. This field always contains "Y" if there is only one match.
N
No, the address is not a close match. The record is a candidate.

LACSAddress

2

Indicates if the input address was converted due to the Locatable Address Conversion System (LACS).

L
Converted
null
Not converted

StreetDataCode

Indicates the data used to geocode the address. One of the following:

0

HERE data

TomTom point-level data
9
Auxiliary file data
10
User Dictionary
11
HERE point-level data
12
Master Location Data

For more information about these databases, see Enterprise Geocoding Databases.

StreetDataType

20

Indicates the data initially used for the match attempt. Note that the output field StreetDataCode shows which data was actually used to obtain the match.

The data indicated in StreetDataType may be different from that in StreetDataCode if a match cannot be made in the initial match attempt. For example, if a points database is loaded, GeocodeUSAddress will first attempt a match to the point data because this is the most accurate type of match. If a point-level match cannot be made, GeocodeUSAddress will attempt to match to street data. If the match is made using street data, then the SreetDataType would indicate the point-level data and the StreetDataCode would indicate the street data.
