Reverse Geocode inside a Parcel polygon?

CameronBlandy

We have a cadastre polygon feature class. Some of the features have a Name associated with the lot (i.e. Neighbourhood Park). I would
like to be able to reverse geocode using coordinates to find out which Park Name the coordinates fall in. I have tried the using the General – Single
Field style but it only geocodes to the centroid of the polygon if I am within the distance specified. I also tried using the Gazetteer style and that was a
little better but did not seem to work in a Composite Locator when combined with Street based locators. Maybe I need a custom style.

I am using 10.0 SP5.

I hope somebody is able to help me or point me in the correct direction.

Regards,

Cameron

Brad from ESRI gave me the solution so I am posting here for all users. Here it is:

Go to the locator style (%ArcgisInstallDirectory%\Locators) and open the General.lot.xml in a text editor (I would suggest Notepadd++). Look for mapping_schema name="SingleField"t used here so t worry about that) in the XML file. If you look in the XML just ” section.

If you comment this out, the locator will be built with polygons instead of points. It will make the locator slower but will work better for reverse geocoding. You can comment this out by adding a “<!—“ before the first “<conversions>” tag and “-->” after the“</conversions>” tag like you see below:

<!--<conversions>

</conversions>-->

After this you will need to re-create your locator (not rebuild).

What is the equivalent solution when using Pro?

bharold

Hi the procedure is the same if you are using a Single Field style locator, its just the location of the style file in Pro has changed, by default it will be at: C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\Locators

Is this still an option in ArcGIS Pro 3.3?

ShanaBritt

@KadeChapman3 This option is not available for locators that are built with the Create Locator tool or Create Feature Locator tool. The option was only available for locators built with the Create Address Locator tool in ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro 2.6 and earlier.

@MattFancher1 What type of polygon data is the locator built with? What does it represent? Which roles are used in the locator used for reverse geocoding?

There is nothing new in the latest release that supports returning a polygon as a geocode result.

@ShanaBritt thanks for the reply! And sorry, because my previous post wasn't clear. The situation is this: we have a web app that residents can use to request service from our city. They specify the location of the service request by dropping a pin on a map. Dropping a pin triggers a reverse geocode to get the "closest" address. The geocode service we call uses a locator with three reference layers: address points, street centerlines, and park polygons. Park polygons are included as the POI type because we want any pin dropped within the park to be tied to the official park address. That works as expected. However, we have a few edge cases where residents drop pins outside the park, but the reverse geocode call still returns the park address. We think that's because the parks in the edge cases are very small, and their centroid is less than 25 meters from the perimeter of the park, which is the search tolerance for the POI centroid feature type. Hopefully that makes more sense. Is there a way to avoid returns from the park polygon centroids when pins are dropped outside the parks?
