ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government Address Collection

Address collection is a crucial component of any plan for customer data management. It ensures that the addresses in the database of the company match those on customers documents that prove address, such as pay stubs and tax returns.

A central contact database can also be used to manage personal projects, such as sending holiday cards or wedding invitations. Here are some tips on how to collect and organize contact information in the most straightforward method possible.

ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government

The ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government solution delivers a set of capabilities that help maintain an authoritative address repository, continuously improve the quality of address data and share authoritative addresses with both internal and external stakeholders. The solution comes with an ArcGIS Pro project designed to be used by mapping technicians, address verification crews, and others responsible for the gathering, maintenance and use of road centerlines that are authoritative, valid site addresses, and the associated postal addresses. It also comes with a set of preconfigured ArcGIS Data Reviewer checks that can be used to validate, maintain, and improve the integrity of address information.

Address data capture is the process of capturing postal and site addresses for all buildings, sites, and structures that require an identification number. This information is essential to the development of a road and street network that encourages safe and efficient commerce.

The Address Data Management task allows you to create a brand new site address feature by following the steps in the Add Site Addresses task. Site addresses are unique to the structure they are serving or a specific area within a parcel. For example the site address could be an entrance point for a driveway that serves one or more homes on one parcel. The address of the site can also be used as a contact point for a service location like a fire station.

You can add one or more distinct postal addresses to an address. Postal addresses serve to identify a building, or any other structure, and provide contact details for the owner or occupant. The site address feature classification and type schema is based on a status field which permits local governments to classify features as temporary, pending or current.

Assume that you are a supervisor of an addressing authority and your team is tasked to verify an incorrect address report from an external stakeholder. Open the Address Field Inventory map in the ArcGIS Workforce App and search for the address. Select the missing address point and then click Edit. Enter the correct information for the address, which includes a street name and municipality. Then tap Submit (iOS) or the check mark (Android).


ArcGIS Pro Project

An ArcGIS Pro project provides a location to organize your work, store files, and use many tools and features. A project can comprise of scenes, maps layers, layouts, and layers to display your data in the way you want it. It could include links to databases, folders as well as resources for importing or exporting data.

Each item in a Project has a set or metadata that describes it. The metadata of a project can assist you find items, evaluate and decide which ones are suitable for your current project. It can be used to record the contents of a project. A good example of metadata could be the name and description of a scene or map. By clicking the Properties button on the toolbar, or the Details window, allows you to modify the metadata of every item in a Project.

ArcGIS Pro is reusable. The items within the project (such as scenes and maps) can be transferred to other projects. Additionally, project components (such as geodatabases and toolboxes) can be moved or renamed from one location to another. ??????? of items can be accessed via connections, without having to save them in the project file.

The Project tab appears on the home page of ArcGIS Pro. You can choose to open a newly completed project or create a brand new project by using templates. You can create a project by using the Map template. This opens a map that has the topographic basemap.

You can save your project to the local computer or to a folder on your active portal. The default project location is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If you want to save your project into a folder, you can search for the Create folder for this project on the New Project dialog.

If possible, it's a recommended to keep your data, ArcGIS Pro installations, and project files on the same machine to speed up round-trip communication. In ??????? , it's impossible to locate these components on the same computer, or you might prefer to share your project files, data and other resources on a network.

Data Assistant Add-in

The Data Assistant Addin is a collection of tools placed into the Data Assistant Toolbar. These tools allow you to create source-target configuration files and load or replace data.

When used in conjunction with the Community Data Aggregation solution These tools allow the employees of the organization to transform and load data sources into a community layer, and schedule automated updates to the layer regularly. These tools allow you to personalize the solution for your organization.

To utilize the Data Assistant Add-in you must install it on every ArcGIS Pro machine that will be used to transfer data to one or more community layers. To download the add in go to the Content section of ArcGIS and click on the Data Assistant item.

Once the add-in is downloaded, follow the installation instructions to install it. After installing, close any open ArcGIS applications prior to opening another ArcGIS Pro session. After the add-in has been installed, you can start it by clicking on the Data Assistant icon located in the ArcGIS Pro Toolbar.

You can create an Data Mapping File by using the Configure Data Mapping Dialog Box once the Data Assistant Addin has been started. This dialog box allows you to define the field mapping and the settings of a source-target configuration. Once the configuration file is set you can use the Replace Data tool to replace data in the target dataset from the source layer based on the selected setting. This tool also provides the possibility of storing results in a local database and bypass the final process by replacing data only on a subset of records.

Data Management

Address data is vital for all businesses. It has to be accurate and reliable, as well as standardized. For example, whether it's routing mail, providing location services on a website or for marketing to potential customers and clients bad data could be disastrous. It is therefore vital that businesses implement an address management system.

A system for managing addresses is a way to maintain a consistent and verified list of addresses. It helps you easily keep your address database up to current and ensures that it complies with the national guidelines, for instance those provided by the country's postal authority. It also lets you verify and correct inaccurate addresses provided by internal or external stakeholders.

For instance for instance, the USPS maintains a list of verified addresses, and also provides a certification called CASS (Coding Accuracy Support System). A more sophisticated solution such as PostGrid is CASS-certified that means it is able to connect to the official USPS database to instantly verify an address. This can save time and improve data accuracy.

This issue can be addressed by establishing an authoritative address repository that can accommodate a variety of information needs, and continually improving its data quality through processes. To achieve this goal it is necessary to establish an address standard, enhance processes to store and capture data, create audit controls, and assign ownership over this information, and make sure that it is accessible to all parties.

It is an ideal idea to incorporate the address collection into your organization's master data management strategy. MDM is an instrument that manages numerous types of vital business data, including address data. Integrating your address verification API into your MDM allows you to clean and update data in real time without any manual effort.

You can begin collecting and managing addresses by creating an ArcGIS Work Assignment and adding any person who is responsible for verifying address in the field using a mobile Worker Role to the Address Assignments ArcGIS Workforce Project. Then, they'll travel out into the field and use the app to gather new addresses and verify the information collected from crowdsourced sources. When they're done, they can upload addresses back to the office assigned to them in the office to have them added to the authoritative site address layer and marked incorporated.
