Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, has announced that it is collaborating with Infutor Data Solutions to improve the geocoding and address matching capability available for Esri’s ArcGIS World Geocoding Service in the US. Users in any industry — especially insurance, telecom, healthcare, utilities, real estate, and retail — will benefit from the increased precision of geocoding that comes from rooftop locations for addresses and subaddress information for places with multiple units.
“We are excited to bring our users the best available coverage and accuracy in address information,” Robert Jensen, product manager for geocoding at Esri said. He added that industries that relied heavily on addresses needed spatial precision along with frequently updated attribution to make effective decisions and the integration of data from Infutor Data Solutions into ArcGIS would give them the confidence in Esri’s ability to provide the most impactful geocoding and search experience.
The new rooftop locations for the US became available for users of ArcGIS on June 30. This update benefits users of ArcGIS World Geocoding Service, which is made readily available in ArcGIS Platform as well as ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Enterprise, and ArcGIS Online. Users may also access geocoding on their infrastructure with ArcGIS World Geocoder and ArcGIS StreetMap Premium. Geocoding data is populated with business list data, real property data, and many other things.
While Infutor Data Solutions has worked with many intelligence organizations in the world, Kevin Dean its Chief Operating Officer lauds Esri’s achievement as being “second to none” and saw the collaboration as the beginning of a long term partnership.
