What is minimum candidate score?
Minimum candidate score When an address locator searches for likely candidates in the reference data, it uses this threshold to filter the results presented. Locations that yield a score lower than this threshold are not presented. The minimum candidate score for an address locator is a value between 0 and 100.
What is geocode score?
The geocoding engine assigns a score to each candidate to determine how closely each one matches the address being geocoded. Each potential candidate is assigned a score from 0 to 100. Each address element is used to generate this score.
How do I geocode intersections in Arcgis?
Intersection connectors

- Type the intersection connectors the address locator will recognize in the text box next to Intersection connectors.
- Click OK to save the settings.
Is there a minimum match score for geocoding?
When batch geocoding, the minimum match score must be met or exceeded to be geocoded. If more than one match is found, the candidate with the highest match score is assigned. The minimum match score is also used on the Find dialog box if you have unchecked the Show all candidates check box.
How are geocoding scores calculated in ArcGIS?
After a table of addresses is geocoded, ArGIS provides information about each geocoded address, among those the “match score” of the candidate to which the address was matched, which ranges from 0 to 100.
What is minimum candidate score for address locator?
The minimum candidate score for an address locator is a value between 0 and 100. If the address locator seems unable to find any likely candidates for an address that you want to geocode, you can lower this setting so candidates with lower scores are presented.
Why does geocoding take longer with lower setting?
The geocoding process takes longer when you use a lower setting because the address locator has to process and compute scores for more candidates. Some address locator styles use reference data containing address range information for each side of the street.
