Making the Most of Interactive Geocoding

Interactive geocoding allows you to control the matching process because you can accept or ignore
a potential match from the list of suggestions that MapMarker generates for the record.

See the following topics:

Change Matching Conditions

MapMarker follows the settings in the Geocode dialog or responds to your changed settings as you
progress through the interactive pass. To increase the list of suggested matches, you can use less
restrictive matching criteria. You can do this at the beginning of an interactive pass or change the
settings for each record by clicking Options on the

Interactive Geocode dialog

.

You can also return to a previous record in the table by selecting Back and changing settings as
needed. This feature can help you maximize the potential for a match.
