Address completion

Geocodio can be used to complete incomplete addresses. You can submit full addresses in different formats as well as incomplete addresses.

As long as you supply at least Street + City + State/Province or Street/postal code code, Geocodio can return a full completed and standardized address street, city, state, zip and county. In 90% of cases, these combinations will have a result that is either on the exact rooftop or in front of the parcel on the street. If only a city/state or postal code is given, a centroid will be returned. (See more about accuracy here.)

All of the following are acceptable inputs for US addresses:

Address components supplied Example
Street/City/State, directional and street type abbreviated 1109 N Highland St, Arlington VA
Street/City/State, directional abbreviated, street type spelled out 1109 N Highland Street, Arlington VA

Notes

  • If a city is given without a street or state/province, the city with the largest population will be assumed.
  • If a country is not specified in the query, Geocodio will assume the country to be USA.

Please note that at this time, Geocodio is not CASS certified by USPS. If you require CASS-certified address completion, such as for shipping purposes, a different vendor may be a better fit.
