What’s New in ArcGIS Geocoding for ArcGIS Pro 3.7

ArcGIS Geocoding gives you the ability to transform the description of a place into a location on a map, while also allowing you to find addresses, cities, business names, and postal codes around the world. What further sets it apart is its ability to seamlessly geocode an entire file of addresses in a single operation. The Esri team continues to improve this capability and with the release of ArcGIS Pro 3.7, we are pleased to announce the following updates:

Geocoding

• Locators created in ArcGIS Pro 3.7 have the following new properties, which are supported when the locator is published to ArcGIS Enterprise 12.1:
  • Exclude intersection type is a Match Options property that allows you to exclude certain intersection types from geocoded results with locators that support the StreetAddress role.
  • Distance is a Reverse Options property that allows you to define a custom search distance for returning reverse geocoding results.
• The following match narrative enhancements are available:
  • The MatchNarrative field was added to geocoded results.
  • The Match Narrative parameter appears in the Geocode Table guided workflow.
  • Access Match narrative details in the Rematch Addresses pane.
• Publishing locators
  • The Batch Geocode publishing capability is available when you share locators to ArcGIS Enterprise 12.1 or later (Windows and Linux portals).
  • Batch Geocode creates a GeocodeServer service and a GPServer service.
  • The GPServer service is used as the Input Batch Service parameter value in the Batch Geocode geoprocessing tool and Geocode Table wizard.
• Rematch Pane
  • Access the match narrative details of address candidates in the Rematch Addresses pane by clicking the Show Details button.
  • The match narrative will show in a pop-up window for you to review the details.
• Locators return the MatchNarrative output field by default in output fields.
• Search results in the Locate pane can be collapsed or expanded.
