Mar 27, 2012 at 14:41 comment added Jeffrey @D.E.Wright You are correct. There are addresses that exist outside the domain of the USPS, but the vast majority of them can be found within the USPS database of deliverable addresses. Fedex and UPS both have some addresses (usually remote ones) that they deliver to and USPS will not deliver to. It would be nice to have an authoritative source that combined all of those addresses. The difficulty with that is that the USPS doesn't exactly share their entire database, and neither do Fedex or UPS. For the most part it is proprietary data. Address verification is for more than just mailing.
Jan 23, 2012 at 20:57 comment added D.E.Wright Im not looking really for Bulk-Mailing correction or certifications which is what CASS is driven towards; more for just better parsing and lookup to help correct bad addresses. I already have USPS AIS and AMS databases and am now starting to build logic to parse and query a record from those sources if not matched fully. I will take a look at the links you reference; but I am driving towards building a solution that can be shared for most common US addresses for a lower cost. Just because USPS AIS/AMS doesn't find it doesn't mean its incorrect.
