GeoTAX HTTP Response - Precisely Data Integrity Suite

Indicates the confidence in the output provided; from 0 to 100. The higher the score, the higher the confidence in the match. Calculated based on the match results for individual output fields, using the following algorithm: Census.MatchCode + LatLong.StreetMatchCode + LatLong.MatchCode

The maximum confidence score is 100, so if this calculation results in a value greater than 100, the Confidence score is returned as 100. The following values are used:

• Census.MatchCode

5 = 45 9 = 75 A = 85 C = 55 F = 45 G = 85 I = 85 L = 85 M = 0 O = 85 P = 100 S = 85 U = 85 X = 0 null = 0

• LatLong.StreetMatchCode

H = 5 L = 15 S = -10 Z = -5 null = 0

• LatLong.MatchCode

2 = 0 4 = 10 B = 0 C = 0 I = 10 L = 15 O = 15 R = 15 S = -10 T = -2 U = 15 Z = -5 null = -100

The value in this field varies depending on the option you specified in the Sales tax cross-reference key option:

You can use this code in your application to find out the tax rate for the jurisdiction. The jurisdiction code formats are as follows:

• 2-digit SUT state code, 5-digit ZIP Code, 2-digit SUT geocode
• variable-length TWE geocode

Return code denoting the level of match obtained against the cross reference files.

• E: Exact match using five fields: FIPS state code, FIPS county code, FIPS or GNIS place code, ZIP Code, and FIPS place name.
• P : Partial match using four fields: FIPS state code, FIPS county code, FIPS or GNIS place code, and ZIP Code.
• A: Alternate match using two fields: ZIP Code, FIPS place name.
• N: Record is default coded based on valid state code.
• null: No matching record found.

Indicates the confidence surface type. Setting a non-zero buffer width enables confidence generation. To determine a confidence level, a confidence surface is first generated. The confidence surface provides the smallest possible area wherein an address is likely to be located.

0: Undefined

1: The search failed - the address was not found.

2: Intersection confidence surface generated.

3: Interpolated street segment.

4: Point-level match.

5: State confidence surface generated.

6: County confidence surface generated.

7: City confidence surface generated.

8: Reserved

9: A ZIP Code confidence surface generated.

10: A ZIP+2 confidence surface generated.

11: A ZIP+4 confidence surface generated.

12: Reserved

13: A street centroid confidence surface generated.

Indicates whether the address is located in an incorporated or unincorporated place. A "place" is a geographic area defined on the basis of population criteria that vary by state. Or, an area recognized as significant because it is located in an incorporated municipality.

• Inc: Incorporated place code.
• Uninc: Unincorporated place code.
• Unknown: Incorporation status unknown.

Returns the result for a comparison between the matched address point to the polygon defined by the Place.txb file. Note: The buffer distance for Place.txb is internally set to zero and cannot be modified.

• P : The point is in the polygon.
• I: The point is in the buffer area inside the polygon.
• B : The point is in the buffer area and outside of the polygon.
• blank: Polygon not found.

g: Single-digit Block Group FIPS Code

bbb: Block FIPS Code
