next gen 911‌addressing##911 addressing At the local GIS Users group meeting a few days ago there was a presentation on Next Generation 911, how it will differ from the current system, and that it is hoped to be implemented by the year 2020 in the United States and Canada.  I do addressing for a medium-sized city, so am curious how this will roll down to my level, since I am not directly involved in response but the response folks do use the addresses I assign.  Since NextGen 911 will be directly using municipalities centerline GIS data instead of phone company records, this caught my attention. So some beginner questions: Is the project on track for 2020 in all areas? Has anyone fully implemented NextGen 911 already? What level of effort does it typically require municipalities to update their centerline data so it works with surrounding municipalities in NextGen 911? What level of effort is anticipated once the centerline data is in use in NextGen 911 to do the ongoing maintenance?  Is it expected to require extra staffing? Is it expected that address points will be a requirement in the near future (sounds like they are not required in the current implementation)? Have municipalities and call centers (PSAP) been able to get funding to help implement NextGen 911?  Organizational funding?  Grants? If you have worked on this, any insight on issues that have come up? Also, on the legislative side, is there a mandate that specifies when the system must be in place?  Or is it voluntary at this point? Chris Donohue, GISP ... View more

ArcGIS Pro 2.5.1; Single Role Street Address Locator I created a single role, street address locator and have been using it this afternoon, on a few tables.  Rematching worked just fine for the first few geocoded results, but this latest one is misbehaving.  Typically as I click through the unmatched addresses, I can make an edit to the address, hit the tab key, followed by the Apply button and get either suggestions or not.  Now, when I make the edit and then hit tab, apply, it kicks me back to the first record of the unmatched stack.  See gif below.  What is going on here? ...

Is there a wildcard I can use in Find and Replace so that I can get rid of things like 'BLDG 7', or 'UNIT A' from the end of addresses. I am trying to match addresses to an address file that does not include the Unit numbers of BLDG numbers. Is there a way to eliminate these types of details from the end of this text string? I can find them with Select by Attributes where (MyTableName) LIKE '% BLDG %' brings back the records, but in the table I am working on this brings back 1752 records and that is way too many to hand correct... ...

ArcGIS Pro 2.4.0 What is the logic of the 'Match out of Range' setting in a locator created with the create locator tool?  By default it is set to Yes. I geocoded a table of addresses against a multi-role locator that has Address Points and Street Address roles. When I rematch, there are no candidates found. However, with the same locator active in my map, I can get get a 98.9 score on an address that does not exist with the Locate tool: Eric Anderson‌ ... View more

My alias table contains primary street names as well as the alias names.  No issue on using the table but need some help with the logic of the situation. Abbott St is the Primary....it has an alias of Bubba Rd, however Bubba Rd is also a Primary street located elsewhere....my thinking is this will cause issues. Any thoughts? Jim ... View more
