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
Here are all possible parameters:
- streetName
- streetNameSuffix (optional)
- baseNumber
- baseNumberSuffix (optional)
- unitNumber (optional)
- unitNumberSuffix (optional)
- block (optional)
- lot (optional)
DBI (or any given agency) may not use the same exact street name and street name suffix.
Therefore, the search algorithm and queries must include street name and street suffix aliases.
For example, to search for the EAS primary addresses
streetName = "SOUTH VAN NESS"
streetNameSuffix = "AVE"
baseNumber = "1"
DBI may submit these parameters:
streetName = "S VAN NESS"
streetNameSuffix = "AV"
baseNumber = "1"
Example 1
