User Guide
The Candidate Map dialog appears when you click Map in the Interactive Geocode, Quick Find, or
Locate Highway Exit dialogs. Candidate Map displays a street map for the vicinity of the match
candidates MapMarker has returned for a record. Use the Candidate map to help you decide the
best match for your record. You can view match candidates for street addresses, ZIP Code™
centroids and street intersections.
Map
The map window shows the match candidates and the underlying street
layers that you set in Map Preferences dialog. Each candidate is identified
by a color-coded star and address label. The star represents the type of
geocoding accuracy you would get if you selected that candidate as a
match.
