Techical Details
Address parsing is the process of dividing a single address string into its
individual component parts. A
set of rules have been developed using tokenization on white spaces
between words, the ordering of the tokens, and a series of alias tables to determine
each of the individual address components.
The Texas A&M Geoservices Geocoder uses a deterministic token-based
context-aware substitution table strategy to parse the input data.
