Rooftop geocoding
More satisfying than a hole-in-one, but just as accurate, rooftop geocoding finds the exact location of a structure. It's critical for risk analysis, strategic planning, and last-mile delivery. Rooftop-accurate geocoding provides the precise latitude and longitude of the building's rooftop or the exact sub-unit in multi-unit structures.

FAQ

How are global geocodes different from US Geocodes?

Much like US geocodes, Smarty validates and standardizes its global address data. The main difference is that every country has different levels of accuracy for its geocodes. Nevertheless, Smarty still provides you with the most accurate data available, and you can view the maximum precision level for each country here.

What are address geocoding and rooftop geocoding?

Address geocoding is any process that converts addresses into geographic coordinates regardless of accuracy. Rooftop geocoding is address geocoding that consistently identifies the rooftops of a parcel's primary structures. Some geocoders falsely imply rooftop accuracy, but Smarty’s US Rooftop Geocoding provides valid rooftop coordinates.

What is the purpose of precise address geocoding?

Geocoding unlocks hidden values from your address data. For example, it helps you ask questions like, “What insurance risks does an address have nearby?” or “What specific service district is it in?” The more precise your geocoding lookup is, the more you can reduce costs and increase profits.

How accurate is Smarty's rooftop geocoding?

More than 97% of US addresses will accurately reflect the building's geographical coordinates. In cases where multiple addresses are identified within the same building, Smarty's geocoding will frequently be correct at the secondary address level—meaning US Rooftop Geocoding can help you identify individual shops in a strip mall or precisely locate each office in a business park.

How does US Rooftop Geocoding deal with false positives?

False positives can lead to costly mistakes and misinformed business decisions. US Rooftop Geocoding is connected to Smarty's highly accurate address validation product for superior accuracy. It dramatically reduces the number of false positives in your data. When it finds a false positive, it marks it as invalid.
