Adding a Street to Classic Geocoder Layer - streetpro_display - streetpro_navigation_premium - Latest

This example describes the process for adding a new street segment to the Classic Geocoder Layer. Since the street segment is new, you need to add the graphic object (the line segment or polyline) and address ranges to the Geocode1 table. If the name of the street does not currently exist in the Geocode2 table, you need to add the new name to the Geocode2 table.

To add a street to Classic map:

1. From the File menu in MapInfo Pro, select Open followed by the Geocode1 table (SSGeocode1 for the particular state) as a Map window.
2. Open the Geocode2 table (SSGeocode2 for the particular state) in a Browser window.
3. Determine if the new street segment’s name already exists in the Geocode2 table. This can be done using the Query menu, by clicking SQL Select. To do this, select all records from the Geocode2 table where:

   Name = your street

   • If no records are selected, you need to add a new record in the Geocode2 table. Proceed to Step 4.
   • If the street name is found in the browser window, note the MI_Refnum. This is the MI_Refnum to be used for the new record in the Geocode1 table.
4. Click the names title bar to make the browser active. Click New Row from the Edit menu. MapInfo Pro appends an empty record to the end of the browser window.
5. Type the new street name into this empty record. The new street name needs a corresponding MapInfo pro reference number to associate it with the street segment. Type in a unique reference number, for example 900000. (We suggest that you start labeling new names with this number because such a strategy will easily enable you to differentiate between new and old reference numbers. Add any additional reference numbers sequentially.)
6. Make the Map window active, and from the Map menu, click Layer Control. Make the segments layer editable.
7. Draw the new street segment in the Map window.
8. Select the new segment with the Info tool. MapInfo Pro displays an Info toolbox for the segment. Type the appropriate textual information into the record’s fields. As a minimum, you need to specify the Name and MI_Refnum. (Use the MI_Refnum determined in step 3 if the street already existed in the Geocode2 table; otherwise, use the new MI_Refnum that you created in step 5)
9. Repeat step 5 - 8 for each additional new segment with the same name.
10. Save both the SSGeocode1 and SSGeocode2 tables when you have finished.
