AssignGeoTAXInfoPlusGTR returns the standardized or validated address in the fields listed in these tables:

Standard Address

Standard address output consists of four lines of the address which correspond to how the address would appear on an address label. City, state/province, postal code, and other data is also included in standard address output. Standard address output is returned for validated addresses if you set Option.OutputRecordType=A. Standard address fields are always returned for addresses that could not be validated. For non-validated addresses, the standard address output fields contain the address as it appeared in the input ("pass through" data). If you want addresses to be standardized according to postal authority standards when validation fails, specify Option.OutputFormattedOnFail=Y in your request.

StreetName.Alias.Type

This result code applies to U.S. addresses only.

Note: In previous releases this field was named StreetName.AliasType with no "." between "Alias" and "Type." This old name is obsolete. Please update your processes to use the new name StreetName.Alias.Type.
Abbreviated
The alias is an abbreviation of the street name. For example, HARTS-NM RD is an abbreviated alias for HARTSVILLE NEW MARLBORO RD.
Changed
There has been an official street name change and the alias reflects the new name. For example if SHINGLE BROOK RD is changed to CANNING DR, then CANNING DR would be a changed alias type.
Other
The street alias is made up of other names for the street or common abbreviations of the street.
Preferred
The street alias is the locally preferred alias. For example, a street is named "South Shore Dr." because it runs along the southern shore of a lake, not because it is south of a municipal demarcation line. So, "South" is not a predirectional in this case and should not be shorted to "S". So, "South Shore Dr." would be the preferred alias.

StreetSuffix.Result

The result codes for the street name (for example, 123 E Main St Apt 3).
