14. Road Ahead
Geocoding

15. ArcGIS Geocoding Strategy
ArcGIS Geocoding covers many use cases
Geosearch, Batch and Reverse Geocoding
Coordinates, Features, Addresses, Places, POIs
Online, On-Premises (Behind the Firewall), Offline (Packaging)
Ready to use content and user address data
Support for Global and Local requirements
Strategy focusses on increasing the performance, quality and the efficiency of deploying geocoding across the platform

16. USA Geocoding Styles
ArcGIS 10.5
Quality and Performance fixes that were made for the online service will now be part of the 10.5 USA style
Additional output fields consistent with the Online Service
Improved field mapping
USA Sub Address Style
Many quality improvements with 10.5

17. Enhancements for Coordinate Geocoding
ArcGIS Online Dec 2016
USNG capability added to ArcGIS Online World Geocoding Service
USNG results are available to developers through the categories API
July 2016
Lat / Long coordinate enhancements for Online Geocoding
MGRS and USNG geocoding available to configure for use in the AGOL/Portal viewer
Dec 2016

18. Improved Matching
Road Ahead
Geocoding improvements to handle extra information in addresses

Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

19. Reverse Geocoding of Areas
Road Ahead
Reverse Geocoding will work with Areas
Locators store all POI, Admin and Postal areas as polygons
A reverse geocoding request returns a list of all relevant polygons for a location
Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

20. Advanced Intersection Geocoding
Road Ahead
Intersection geocoding will support more types of intersections
Find roads that are close to each other
Find roads that pass over but don’t intersect
Find roads entering roundabouts
Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

21. Suggestions work in Pro for Local Locators
Road Ahead
Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

22. Improved Multiline Support
Road Ahead
Additional address field inputs
Address data can be stored in many separate fields
House Number, Street Name, Unit#; each in a field
Multiline tools will support more than one input address field
Incorrect field mapping tolerance
Area information such as city, state, province is not consistent globally
If the data from the source file is incorrectly field mapped Locators can handle it with some flexibility
Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

23. More Efficient Locators
Road Ahead
Locator
Smaller Locators which take less space on disk and use fewer system resources
Improvements to locator compilation speed
Performance improvements
Locator
Additional geocoding improvements you’ll see in future ArcGIS releases

24. Recommendation
Geocoding is constantly being improved across the system
To ensure the best results we recommend updating your software and rebuilding locators using the latest styles with each release.
