GeoCoder Object Build History
Below is a list of changes and
additions to GeoCoder Object.
Build 1115 Released 3/15/07
The
Census Block property has reverted back to returning a 4
character string. It was originally reduced down to a 1
character string due to imprecise data, but better and more
accurate data has been received to return back to a 4 character
string.
Build 1049 Released 7/15/06
Two
new properties are now available with Geocoder Object.
PlaceName property (60 chars):
The official census name for the area described
by the ZIP+4 Code. This may differ for the city
name in the ZIP Code database.
PlaceCode property (7 chars):
The corresponding code for the place name.
Build 151 Released 1/15/06
Linux
and Solaris objects now available.
The
Census Block property now returns a 1 character string instead
of a 4 character string. This was done to eliminate imprecisions
and overlaps that occurred in the data. Now, only the block
group is returned for more accurate results.
