ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government Address Collection
Address collection is an essential element of any plan for managing customer data. This process ensures that the addresses on the database of a company match the proof of address documents such as tax stubs and pay returns.
A central contact database is also helpful for sending out wedding invitations and holiday cards, as well as managing other personal projects. Here are some tips on how to gather and organize contact information in the most straightforward method possible.
ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government
The ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government provides a set capabilities that can help maintain a repository of authoritative addresses and enhance the quality of address data and share authoritative addresses with internal and external stakeholders. The solution includes a project for ArcGIS Pro that is designed to be used by mapping crews as well as address verification teams and other people responsible for collecting, storing and using authoritative road centerlines and valid site addresses. It also includes a preconfigured ArcGIS Data Reviewer check that can be used to validate maintaining, enhancing, and confirming the accuracy of address information.
Address data capture is the process of collecting postal and site addresses for all buildings as well as structures, sites and structures that require an identification number. It is a crucial step in the development of a reliable road and street network that enables safe and efficient trade and service delivery.
The Address Data Management task lets you create a new address for your site feature by following the steps of the Add Site Addresses task. Site addresses are unique for the structure or location they serve within the boundaries of a parcel. A site address may be the entrance to a driveway that is used by one or more houses on the parcel. The site address could also serve as a point of contact for a service center, such a fire station.
You can add one or more distinct postal addresses to an address. Postal addresses are used to identify a structure, or any other structure, and provide contact information for the owner or occupant. The site address feature classification and type schema is dependent on a status field which allows local governments to categorize features as temporary, pending, or current.
Imagine you are a supervisor within an address authority, and your team is assigned to verify a incorrect address report provided by an outside stakeholder. Utilizing the ArcGIS Workforce app, open the Address Field Inventory map and look up the address in the report in question. Select the address that is not in the map and tap Edit. Enter the correct address information, including the street name and the municipality. Tap Submit (iOS), or the checkmark (Android).
ArcGIS Pro Project
An ArcGIS Pro project provides a space to organize your work, store files, and use a variety of tools and functionality. A project can include an array of maps, scenes, layers, and layouts that display your data as you would like to see it. It can also include connections to folders, databases, and resources for importing or exporting data.
Every item in a project has a set or metadata that describes the item. Metadata for a project can help you locate items, assess them, and determine which ones are suitable to use for the task at hand. It can be used to document the content of a project. Metadata can be used to describe a map, or an entire scene. The Properties button on the toolbar, or in the Details window, enables you to modify the metadata of every item in a Project.
ArcGIS Pro projects are reusable--the objects in them (such as maps and scenes) can be copied to other projects. Also, components of the project (such as geodatabases and toolboxes) can be moved or changed from one location to another. A lot of items can be accessed through connections without having to store them in the project file.
The Project tab appears on the start page of ArcGIS Pro. You can choose to open a newly completed project or create a new project by using templates. For instance, you can create a new project by using the Map template which opens with a map that shows an elevation basemap.
You can save your project to a location on your local computer or to a folder on your active portal. The default project location is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If you want to save the project to an appropriate folder, you can choose the Create a Folder for this local project checkbox on the New Project dialog box.
If possible, it's a good practice to locate your data, ArcGIS Pro installations, and project files on the same machine to cut down on round-trip time for communication. You might not be able to find all of these components on one computer or you might prefer to share files, data, and other resources over a network.
Data Assistant Add-in
The Data Assistant Add-in provides a set of focused tools organized 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 combination with the Community Data Aggregation Solution, enable staff to transform and load data sources into an aggregated layer for community use and automate updates on a regular base. With these tools, you can configure the solution to meet the specific needs of your organization.
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 layers of the community. 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 and installed, follow the installation steps to install it. Close all open ArcGIS applications before you start an entirely new ArcGIS Pro. Once you have installed the add-in, you can launch the add-in by clicking on the Data Assistant icon in the ArcGIS Pro toolbar.
When the Data Assistant Add-in has been installed, you can create the Data Mapping file by using the Configure Data Mapping dialog box. This lets you define field mappings and settings for a chosen source-target configuration file. Once the configuration file is set you can use the Replace Data tool to replace the data in the target layer from the source layer based on the setting you choose. 주소모음 lets you stage results locally and skip final processing if you just replace data on a subset of records.
Data Management
Address data is critical for most businesses and has to be reliable, accurate and standardized. For example, whether it's routing mail, offering services for location on a website, or marketing to potential customers and clients bad data could be devastating. This is the reason it's vital that every business implements an effective address management system.
An address management system is a process to maintain a standard and verified set of addresses. It enables you to easily maintain your address database and ensure that it conforms to the guidelines set by the national postal authority of your country. It also lets you verify and correct incorrect address information provided by external or internal stakeholders.
USPS for instance maintains a database with verified addresses. It also provides a certification known as CASS (Coding Accuracy System). CASS-certified solutions such as PostGrid can directly connect to the official USPS database and instantly verify an address. This will save time and improve accuracy of data.
The solution to this problem is to build an authoritative address repository that supports different information requirements and constantly improve it by implementing data quality processes. To achieve this goal you must create an address standard, optimize processes for capturing and storing data, establish audit controls, establish ownership over this information, and make sure that it is accessible to all parties.
It is an ideal idea to incorporate the address collection into your company's master data management strategy. MDM handles a range of business data types, including address data. By integrating your address verification API with your MDM you can clean and update the data in real time, without manual work.
You can begin collecting and managing addresses by creating an ArcGIS Work Assignment and adding the person responsible for verifying address information in the field using a mobile Worker Role to the Address Assignments ArcGIS Workforce Project. They can then go in the field to collect new addresses and verify the data collected by crowdsourcing. Once they have completed their task, they can upload their addresses to the office work assignment in order to have them added to the database and added to the authoritative layer of address information on a website.
