ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government Address Collection
Address collection is an essential component of any management plan for customer data. The process makes sure that the addresses on the database of a company match the proof of address documents, such as tax stubs, pay stubs, or returns.
A central database of contacts is also helpful for sending out wedding invitations and holiday cards as well as for managing other personal projects. Here are some ideas on how to gather and organize contact information in the most efficient way you can.
ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government
The ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government offers a range of capabilities that help keep a database of authoritative addresses and enhance the quality of the data on addresses, and share authoritative address with external and internal stakeholders. The solution comes with a project for ArcGIS Pro that is designed to be used by mapping crews, address verification teams, and other people responsible for collecting, maintaining and utilizing authoritative road centerlines as well as valid site addresses. It also includes a preconfigured ArcGIS Data Reviewer check that can be used for validating, maintaining, and improving the integrity of address information.
Address data capture is a process that involves the gathering of postal and site addresses for all buildings, structures and sites that require an identification number. It is a necessary step towards the creation of an authoritative road and street network that supports efficient and safe commerce and service delivery.
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 specific structure or location they serve within the boundaries of a parcel. For instance an address on a site could be an entrance point for a driveway serving one or more homes on a single parcel. The address of the site could also serve as a point of contact for a service location like a fire station.
When you add a new site address, you can optionally connect one or more distinct postal addresses with it. Postal addresses are associated with the structure of a building or other and provide contact details for the owner or occupant. The site address feature classification and type schema is built on a status field that allows local governments to classify features as temporary, pending, or current.
Assume you are a supervisor of an address authority, and your team is tasked to verify an incorrect address report provided by 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 tap Edit. Enter the correct address information including the street's name and the municipality. Then, tap Submit (iOS) or the check mark (Android).
ArcGIS Pro Project
ArcGIS Pro projects allow you to organize and store your work. They also provide access to a variety of tools and features. A project could be the combination of maps, scenes layouts, layers, and layers which display your data the way you would like to see it. It could also include connections to databases, folders and other resources to import or export data.
Every item in a project has a set or metadata that describes it. The metadata of a project will help you locate items, evaluate and decide which ones are suitable for your particular task. It can be used to document the content of a project. Metadata can be used to describe a map or a scene. By clicking the Properties button on the toolbar or the Details window, allows you to edit the metadata of every item in a Project.
ArcGIS Pro projects are reusable--the items in them (such as scenes and maps) can be transferred to other projects. Additionally components of the project (such as toolboxes and geodatabases) can be moved or changed from one location to another. In addition, many items can be accessed through connections without having to be stored in the project file.
When you open ArcGIS Pro, the Project tab is displayed on the home page. It offers options to open a new project or create a brand new project using templates. For instance, you can create a new project using the Map template which opens with a map view that displays an elevation basemap.
You can save your project either to the local computer or to the active portal. The default location for projects is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If you wish to save your project into a folder, you can search for the Create folder for this project on the New Project dialog.
When possible, it's best practice to store your data, ArcGIS Pro installations, and project files on the same machine to speed up round-trip communication. It's possible to locate all these components on one computer or you might prefer to share project files, data, and other files over a network.
Data Assistant Add-in
The Data Assistant Add-in provides a set of targeted tools arranged on the Data Assistant toolbar. These tools allow you to create source-target configuration files, and load or replace data.
These tools, when utilized in conjunction the Community Data Aggregation Solution, enable staff to transform and load sources of data into a layer that can be used by a community and automate updates on a regular basis. Using these tools, you can configure the solution to meet the specific requirements of your business.
To use the Data Assistant Add-in, you must install it on each ArcGIS Pro machine that will be used to transfer data to one or more community layers. To download the add-in, browse to the Content section of your ArcGIS organization and click on the Data Assistant item.
Follow the instructions for installation once the add-in has been downloaded. After installing, close all open ArcGIS applications before opening the new ArcGIS Pro session. After installation you can open the add-in by clicking on the Data Assistant icon in the ArcGIS Pro toolbar.
You can create a Data Mapping File by using the Configure Data Mapping Dialog Box when the Data Assistant Addin has been launched. This lets you define the mapping of fields and settings for a specific source-target configuration file. Once configured you can use the Replace Data tool to replace data in the target dataset from the source layer according to the settings you have selected. This tool allows you to stage results locally and skip final processing if you just replace data in a subset of records.
Data Management
Address data is critical to most businesses and needs to be accurate, reliable, and standardized. Incorrect data can have devastating impacts, whether it's routing mail, location services on a website, or marketing to clients and prospects. This is the reason it's vital that all businesses implement an effective system for managing addresses.
A system to manage addresses is a way to maintain a consistent and verified list of addresses. It assists you in keeping your address database up-to current and ensures that it adheres to national guidelines, like those provided by the country's postal authority. It lets you verify or correct incorrect address information that is provided by external or internal stakeholders.
For example for instance, the USPS maintains a list of verified addresses and provides the certification CASS (Coding Accuracy Support System). An advanced solution like PostGrid is certified by CASS which means it is able to connect to the official USPS database to instantly verify an address. This will save time and increase accuracy of data.
This issue can be addressed by creating an authoritative address repository that can accommodate a variety of information needs, and continually improving its data quality through processes. This requires the creation of an address standard, optimizing processes to collect and store address data, creating audit controls, establishing the ownership of this data set and ensuring 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 manages 링크모음 of critical business data types such as address data. Integrating your address verification API into your MDM allows you to clean and update data in real-time, without the need for manual intervention.
To begin collecting and managing address data You must create an ArcGIS work assignment and add any person who is responsible for verifying addresses in the field to the Address Assignments ArcGIS Workforce project with a Mobile Worker role. They will then be able to go out into the field to gather new addresses, and verify the data collected by crowdsourcing. When they're done, they can send addresses back to the work assignment at the office to have them added to the authoritative site address layer and marked as incorporated.
