In certain situations, the input address data may specify an invalid geographic element, either non-existent or not valid for that specific address combination. The Postal Matcher can perform analysis on this type of data, and if a unique and correct element can be identified, can replace the wrong element with the correct one.

Example 1 Wrong Level-end Value

Input:台灣 台北市 士林市 和平路 80號 111

Fixed: 台灣 台北市士林區 和平路 80號111

In this example, the Level 3 value for this address has the wrong level ending of "市" instead of "區". Because there is only one possible Level 3 value for the rest of the geographic information, this Level 3 ending can be safely replaced with the correct ending.

Example 2 Incompatible Level Value

Input: 台灣 台北縣 士林區 和平路 80號 111

Fixed: 台灣 台北市士林區 和平路 80號111

In this example, a Level 1 value has been specified but is incompatible with the rest of the address information. Because the rest of the address information is only compatible with '台灣', the Postal Matcher can safely replace the Level 2 value.

Incompatible level value(s) may not be safely replaced. For example, if the address data is missing level values, there may not be enough information to arrive at an answer. In other cases, the intended input address may be unclear, such as, when two or more geographic level elements point to one address while others point to a different address. In addition, although a replacement address element may be acceptable, the Postal Matcher will not make a replacement if multiple possibilities exist for the answer.
