Overview
Geocoding is the essential first step in location-based data enrichment. Since an address is the most common linkage point in business and property data, a high-quality geocoder is critical to accurately connecting user data to LightBox’s expansive property intelligence. However, real-world address data is often messy—riddled with inconsistencies, missing fields, and formatting issues. Our geocoding engine intelligently interprets and resolves these challenges through advanced fuzzy matching logic and delivers match confidence scores to help you assess result reliability. Whether standardizing, enriching, or reverse-mapping coordinates, LightBox Geocoding ensures location data is clean, connected, and actionable.
