Hi - I've done geocoding a lot in the past, but never reverse geocoding. I have a shapefile that has lat/longs and an ID, and when I try to reverse geocode, the fields returned are blank. My data is projected. My address locator is "Street_Addresses_US". Any thoughts as to why? Thanks so much!

Did you create the locator that is being used to reverse geocode your points? If so, which tool was used to create the locator?

What application are you performing reverse geocode?

What are your settings for reverse geocode?

If there is no data that is referenced in the locator that is near the location of the points in the shapefile, the reverse fields will be empty.

Thanks for your reply, Shana! I’m using the address locator from StreetMap, the same one I use when I do normal geocoding. Im using the reverse geocoding tool both in ET Geowizards and the tool in ArcMap. Is this helpful? Thanks so much!

Do you know what release of StreetMap Premium you are using?

Did you specify a distance value in the Reverse Geocode tool?

Do you get any results using the Address Inspector with the StreetMap locator when you click on one of the points in the shapefile in ArcMap w/o ET GeoWizards?
