This dataset can be used for two purposes:1. Geocoding addresses in LA County – this file currently geocodes > 99.5% of the addresses in our test files (5,000 out of 8 million addresses) using the County’s geocoding engines.This last statement is important– the County splits the street names and addresses differently than most geocoders. This means that you cannot just use this dataset with the standard ESRI geocoding (US Streets) engine. You can standardize the data to resolve this, and we will be publishing the related geocoding rules and engines along with instructions on how to use them, in the near future. Please review the data fields to understand this information.2. Mapping street centerlines in LA County – note that the street types in this file are not fully updated yet. Use with caution.This file should NOT be used for:Routing and network analysisJurisdiction and pavement managementFor more information, click here to see the Data Portal Entry |
