Here are just a few of the ways in which the LocateIt System can help your company:



Completing Partial Address Using Street Address and Town Name or ZIP® Code

Identifies all key elements of an address


Example:  If you put in the address '444 hoes, piscataway, nj' you get one match:

Street:444 HOES LN
Place:PISCATAWAY (township), MIDDLESEX (county), NJ
ZIP:08854 (PISCATAWAY)
House Numbers on Block:386 to 568
Length of Block:0.33 mi long
Latitude / Longitude:040-32-39 / 074-28-28
V & H:5079.19 1444.43 (5079 1444)

. . .the match provides the missing ZIP code and town name associated with it (Piscataway), the smallest incorporated place (township), the county (Middlesex), and street segment/block information. The LocateIt System also filled in the street type (Lane)."

Address Validation Using Partial Address Information


Example:  If you put in '5 fieldstone pl, flemington' you get one match:

Street:5 FIELDSTONE PL
Place:RARITAN (township), HUNTERDON (county), NJ
ZIP:08822 (FLEMINGTON)
House Numbers on Block:1 to 17
Length of Block:0.08 mi long
Latitude / Longitude:040-30-22 / 074-48-18
V&H:5118.53 1483.51 (5119 1484)

. . .which verifies that Flemington is the name associated with the ZIP code, and that this street address is located in Raritan township.

Example:  To get the V & H of a point near an intersection, '400 ft ne river rd & centennial ave, 08854' returns:

INTERSECTION
Latitude / Longitude:040-32-23 / 074-30-09
V & H:5082.79 1447.56 (5083 1448)
Street 1:R RD RAMP / RIVER RD RAMP
