User Guide

Table

Identifies the name of the table and lists all columns in the table that can be
selected. Highlight an address column name and drag it to the appropriate
address component box. If the table has been previously geocoded,
MapMarker remembers the fields from the table’s metadata. If this is the first
time you have geocoded this table, MapMarker attempts to guess at the
correct fields by examining their field names. To view the complete name of a
field that extends beyond the box provided, hold the cursor over the field name
and MapMarker displays a popup box with the full name of the field.

Firm

Specify the field that contains the name of the organization associated with the
record, if any.

Address

Select the column from your table that contains the primary address data.
Single line address input is recognized in the ADDRESS column. single line
addresses appear on a single line. You can use delimiters (comma, semicolon,
colon, or tab) between each component of the single line address. If no
delimiters are present in the address, MapMarker recognizes spaces as
separators, but non-delimited addresses may take longer to geocode.

for apartment numbers or post office box numbers. This optional information is
appended to the end of the street to form the complete address to be parsed.
