I like to make programs and devices smarter and easier to use. I experiment with new, brilliant interface concepts. I'm a programmer, designer, web developer, and a nice guy.
I like to take pictures. I enjoy good humor in others and the simple things in life, like thunderstorms. Music is a great companion. I seek after anything of good report which makes life more fulfilling.
I believe choices make us who are, and are a major part of how we and others feel.

Batch geocode with multiple services? How many of the services return accuracy estimates? (Ideally, you would just pick the most accurate geocode results based on the accuracy reports.) |

Batch geocode with multiple services? Combining the best results from various services will probably require some advanced GIS knowledge, or proficiency with scripting/programming, or serious Excel ninja skills. The advantages/disadvantages may be different depending on which of these ways you prefer. |

How do I geocode street addresses that have information redacted (e.g. 14XX Main St.)? The most precise way might be to look in the USCB's ZCTA files of the TIGER data. They have the coordinates of streets, and I believe primary number ranges too, as well as which side of the street the numbers fall on. You could then do some interpolation... automating that with GIS software though... hmmm, not sure. |

How do I geocode street addresses that have information redacted (e.g. 14XX Main St.)? You mean the "street number" (actually called a "primary number") has literal Xs in it? I have a potential answer for you, I just want to be clear. |

How to return individual address components (city, state, etc.) from GeoPy geocoder? When I clicked the Down button, it suggested I leave a comment to help improve the answer, so I did. I didn't mean to imply that your answer is un-helpful or doesn't belong here; it certainly adds value to the community! It's a simple solution that others will probably overlook for similar problems. I'm sure that others will find it useful. |

How to return individual address components (city, state, etc.) from GeoPy geocoder? I have to downvote this, not because the intent is not good, but because there is absolutely no guarantee the address components are delimited with a comma. See this question at Stack Overflow about parsing single-line addresses into components. While GeoPy may return a certain format, standardized addresses do not have commas. |
