Please note:
- We highly recommend if possible to break your data up into smaller batches to complete the
processing faster.
-
It is also important to note that the required fields: "Address", "City", "State",
and "Zip" will need to be present in your database or file even if these fields are blank. The
system will not process your records without these fields present.
In a nutshell, to upload and geocode a database you will need to perform four steps:
-
Step 1 - Upload your data files and validate that we can open and read them
-
Step 2 - Choose which data in your files you want to process
-
Step 3 - Identify the fields of your data so we know which column is what
-
Step 4 - Choose your processing options and start the process
Please remember we only geocode US addresses.
Single address geocoding is also available:
