Set offset for street address role locator

JoeBorgione

I've looked in the online help, googled, and have created a new locator thinking I have missed something. Is there a way to set an offset in a street address role locator? (ArcGIS Pro 2.6)

Edited to add: Looks like in 2.7 it's available. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/geocoding/tips-for-improving-geocoding-quality.htm

Joe,

The ability to edit the side offset and end offset was added at Pro 2.7.

is it one of those weird ones like....

The location that contains an offset distance from the found address, for example, 30 yards south from 342 Main St. This is only supported for locators created with the Create Address Locator tool.

JoeBorgione

Create Address Locator is so passe. Since we are strictly a Pro shop, I use only use Create Locator. After 2.6 the old style address locators are no longer supported, and I'm guessing that was part of the motivation to add setting the offset at 2.7.

You know how much I love to upgrade versions. Here goes... 😱

The quote was from 2.7 help as well

JoeBorgione

Just upgraded to 2.7: While I haven't created a new locator I can adjust the offset to existing ones that were created in 2.6 which is cool

@BradNiemand are the offset properties available in arcpy?

Joe,

This is not currently supported for arcpy. We have an issue in our backlog to get it added in an upcoming release.

I've used the locator class as the finishing touch to a create locator script:

outLocator = f'{locatorDir}\{locatorName}'

language = 'ENG'

Okay- so there will be some manual interaction as we've discussed before.

This Old guy is still a few years out from retirement so I'll still be battling for the foreseeable future.

I hope you can see from these clips, that ESRI is aware of these problems, and is working on it.

and whenever Pro 2.8 comes out we'll take another look at switching from our ArcGIS 10.x Geocoder to the create Locators of ArcGIS Pro.

Brian

In my case 20ft wasn't 20ft when coming out of the create locator (Pro2.7), the east west distance was diferent than north south, as you can see the fix is said to in Pro 2.8, Holding breath!!The ability to choose which distance type ie feet, meters, miles etc. are not an option that could be selected from a pulldown menuIn both ArcGIS 10.x and pre Pro2.7 "Legacy" coders, you could set these parameters.20ft used to be 20ft no matter the Axis.

JoeBorgione

Hooray for bugs in new releases! I'm happy to pass the torch to any younger and upcoming geocoding enthusiast....

FYI. Display Options including side offset will disappear when you disable "Street Address" as a geocoding match option (Geocoding options >> Match Options >> Categories to support). This is something you might do, for example, if you only want that particular locator to work for reverse geocoding within a composite locator. Even though the display option is inaccessible the offset still applies when you reverse geocode (point will jump the set distance to side of line when you click on map). If you want to set the offset you need to do this before you turn off the match option. In my case I wanted the point to remain on the line as I am only using this "sub"locator to return the street name on a reverse geocode. So I set the offset to 0 and then changed the match options. This is the case as recently as v 3.0.
