ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government Address Collection
Address collection is an essential element of any customer data management plan. It ensures that the addresses in the company's database are in line with those on the customers' proof of address documents, such as pay statements and tax returns.
A central database of contacts can also be used to manage personal projects, such as sending holiday cards or wedding invitations. Here are some suggestions for collecting and organizing contact information in the most efficient way you can.
ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government
The ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government solution provides an array of capabilities to help maintain an authoritative address repository, continually improve the quality of data on addresses, and share authoritative addresses with internal and external stakeholders. The solution includes an ArcGIS Pro project designed to be utilized by mapping technicians, address verification crews and other personnel responsible for the collection, maintenance and use of authoritative road centerlines as well as valid site addresses and associated postal 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 the process of collecting postal and site addresses for all buildings, sites, and structures that require an identification number. It is a necessary step in the development of an authoritative street and road network that ensures secure and efficient trade and service delivery.
The Address Data Management task allows you to create a new site address feature by following the steps in the Add Site Addresses task. Site addresses are unique for the specific structure or location they serve within a parcel. A site address could be the entrance to a driveway that serves one or more houses on a parcel. The address of the site could also be a point of contact for a service delivery location such as an emergency response station.
You can add one or more distinct postal addresses to a site address. Postal addresses are associated with buildings or other structures and provide contact details for the owner or occupant. The site address feature classification and type schema is built on a status field which permits local governments to categorize features as temporary, pending or current.
Assume you are a supervisor of an address authority and your team has been assigned to verify an inaccurate address report provided by an external stakeholder. Using the ArcGIS Workforce app, open the Address Field Inventory map and look up the address in question. Select the missing address point and tap Edit. Enter the correct information for the address, which includes a street name and a municipality. Then tap Submit (iOS) or the check mark (Android).
ArcGIS Pro Project
ArcGIS Pro projects allow you to organize and save your work. They also offer access to a variety of tools and functions. A project can be a combination of scenes, maps, layers, and layouts that display your data as you would like to see it. It can also include connections to folders, databases and other resources to import or export data.
Every item in a project includes a set of metadata that describes it. The metadata of a project will help you to find items, assess and determine which ones are best for your current project. It can also be used to record the contents of the project. Metadata can be used to describe a map or a scene. You can modify the metadata for each item in a project by clicking the Properties button on the toolbar or in the Details window.
ArcGIS Pro is reusable. The project's components (such as maps and scenes) can be transferred to other projects. Also, components of the project (such as geodatabases and toolboxes) can be moved or renamed from one location to another. Many items can also be accessed via connections, without having to store them in the project file.
When you start ArcGIS Pro, the Project tab will be displayed on the home page. It offers options to open a recent project or create a brand new project using templates. 주소모음 is possible to create a project by using the Map template. This opens a map with a topographic basemap.
You can save your project either to a folder on your local computer, or to the active portal. The default location for projects is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If you decide to save the project in a folder, you can check the Create a folder for this local project check box on the New Project dialog box.
If you can, it's a best practice to store your data, ArcGIS Pro installations, and project files on the same machine to reduce round-trip communication time. In some cases, however, you can't locate these components on the same computer, or you may want to share your project files, data, and other resources across networks.
Data Assistant Add-in
The Data Assistant Addin is a collection of tools that are put together in a Data Assistant Toolbar. These tools let you create source-target configuration files and load or replace data.
When used in conjunction with the Community Data Aggregation solution, these tools allow employees of the organization to transform and load data sources into a community layer and then schedule automated updates of that layer on a regular basis. With these tools, you can customize the solution to meet specific requirements of your company.
To use the Data Assistant add-in, you must install it on every ArcGIS Pro machine that will be used to migrate data to one or more community layers. To download the add in go to the Content section of ArcGIS and click on the Data Assistant item.
After the add-in has been downloaded, follow the installation instructions to install it. It is essential to close all open ArcGIS apps before you can start an entirely new ArcGIS Pro. Once the add-in is installed, you can open it by clicking on the Data Assistant icon located 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 activated. This allows you to define the mapping of fields and settings for a specific source-target configuration file. Once it is configured the Replace Data tool will replace data in the target layer from the source layer based on the settings selected. This tool also has the ability to stage results in a local database and skip the final processing by replacing data only on a subset of records.
Data Management
Address data is essential for most companies. It should be precise and reliable as well as standardized. For example, whether it's routing mail, offering services for location on a website, or marketing to customers and prospects poor data can be devastating. Therefore, it is crucial that businesses implement an address management system.
A system for managing addresses is a way to keep a standard and verified list of addresses. It allows you to keep your address database up to current and ensures that it is in line with national guidelines, such as those provided by the country's postal authority. It also lets you verify and correct incorrect address information provided by external or internal stakeholders.
For example, the USPS maintains a database of verified addresses, and also provides a certification called CASS (Coding Accuracy Support System). Solutions that are CASS-certified such as PostGrid can directly connect to the official USPS database and verify an address instantly. This can save you time and improve data quality.
This issue can be resolved by creating an authoritative address repository to accommodate a variety of information needs and continuously improving it through data quality processes. To accomplish this it is necessary to establish an address standard, improve processes to store and capture data, create audit controls, establish the right to this information and ensure that it is available to all stakeholders.
It is a good idea to integrate the address collection into your company's master data management strategy. MDM is a tool that deals with many different types of critical business information, including address data. By integrating your address verification API with your MDM it is possible to clean and update the data in real time, without the need for manual effort.
To begin collecting and managing address information, you need to create an ArcGIS work assignment and add anyone responsible for checking addresses in the field to the Address Assignments ArcGIS Workforce project with a Mobile Worker role. They can then go into the field to gather new addresses, and then verify the data collected by crowdsourcing. After they're done, they can upload the addresses back to the office assigned to them in the office to have them incorporated into the authoritative layer of site addresses and marked as incorporated.
