When speed is of the essence, navigating the best route to their destination is a top priority. For this reason, public safety geocoders focus on identifying cross-street information to better optimize those routes and \u201cbookend\u201d their destination. This task can be accomplished by building a geocoding locator that uses reference data which includes cross-street fields and returns these as custom output fields. This article will focus on how to build this cross-street data into reference data using ArcGIS Data Interoperability.<\/p>\n
The process of building a street centerline locator returning cross-streets starts with a street centerline feature class. For example, here are some streets in\u00a0Redding, California<\/strong>\u00a0where we have derived cross-street fields for a feature class. The pop-up relates to the selected street segment, and we have highlighted the added cross-street fields:<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2487402,"id":2487402,"title":"CrossStreetsMap","filename":"CrossStreetsMap.jpg","filesize":368474,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-pro\/mapping\/building-cross-street-data-into-geocoding-locators\/crossstreetsmap-2","alt":"","author":"360602","description":"","caption":"Inspecting Cross-Streets Made by the Tool","name":"crossstreetsmap-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2472762,"date":"2024-09-12 18:36:14","modified":"2024-09-12 18:37:04","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1920,"height":1080,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","large-width":1920,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap-1536x864.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":864,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1080,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap-826x465.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/CrossStreetsMap.jpg","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":" Rather than doing all sorts of math in Python to calculate data structures, we can utilize ArcGIS Data Interoperability<\/strong> to query cross-street information using a no-code approach.
