preamble

On this page we, (Paul, Val, Sam) discuss the how the address lookup service should work.

The latest proposed revision is here.

To look up addresses (DEV):
http://209.126.186.37/address/search/dbi?baseNumber=1&streetName=SOUTH%20VAN%20NESS
http://209.126.186.37/address/search/dbi?baseNumber=2655&streetName=Hyde
http://209.126.186.37/address/search/dbi?baseNumber=2655&streetName=Hyde&block=0026T&lot=646A
http://10.1.15.73:8000/address/search/dbi?baseNumber=1516&streetName=PERSHING&streetNameSuffix=DRIVE

Here are all possible parameters:

  • streetName
  • streetNameSuffix (optional)
  • baseNumber
  • baseNumberSuffix (optional)
  • unitNumber (optional)
  • unitNumberSuffix (optional)
  • block (optional)
  • lot (optional)

The street name must be in the DPW form more or less described here:
todo - We need a more definitive example here
http://dbiweb.sfgov.org/Dbipts/sfstreets.aspx
The street name suffix must be in the unabbreviated form as per
http://www.usps.com/ncsc/lookups/abbr_suffix.txt.
