User Guide

Preferring User Dictionary Matches

You can geocode using:

User Dictionary (or multiple User Dictionaries) alone

Standard MapMarker Address Dictionary

A combination of Address Dictionary and User Dictionaries

The results from a User Dictionary are similar to that from the MapMarker Address Dictionary. The
major difference is that the user dictionary provides point geocoding accuracy (S8 results). Also
candidate from a User Dictionary has a ‘U’ at the end of the georesult code. A candidate that comes
from the MapMarker Address Dictionary has an ‘A’ at the end of the georesult code.

For example: S5HPNTSCZA is a result code that comes from an Address Dictionary, while
S8HPNTSCZU comes from a User Dictionary. See

Chapter 6 Result Codes

for a complete

description of result codes.

In the Desktop Application, use the Match Settings tab of the Geocode dialog to specify whether you
prefer User Dictionary matches (or Address Dictionary matches.) If you check Prefer User Dictionary
Matches, the User Dictionary will be used in preference to the Address Dictionary. Otherwise, the
Address Dictionary is preferred.

If Prefer User Dictionary Matches is selected, the User Dictionary is used in preference to the
Address Dictionary for geocoding.

If more than one User Dictionary can be used, the priority is determined in the Desktop Application
by the order listed in the Dictionary tab of the System Preferences dialog. See

step 3

in the topic

Adding the User Dictionary to the Desktop Application
