Hi all, Im new to Geocoding and I'm using ArcGIS10 (ArcInfo license). I have a spread sheet of point locations, but some are listed by address and some by intersection. Further, some of these addresses and intersections have spatial operators. For example, the point is "32 feet North from 4300 McGlothen Way", or the point is "250 feet East from Snowden Ave @ Ganges Ct". So, I have questions as to how to set up my excel table to properly represent this information, so that it will import correctly and geocode the points. So far, my headings are: SITE_NUM (which is an ID), FACILITIES (which is a name), ADDRESS, INTERSECTION, SPATIAL OPERATOR, CITY, STATE, ZIP 1. Should I have separate headings for Address and Intersection, or can I put an intersection in as an Address? 2. Is SPATIAL OPERATOR an acceptable field? How do I populate it so that the address/intersection point location will be moved the correct amount of feet in the correct direction? Right now each record looks similar to this: "250 feet East from Snowden Ave @ Ganges Ct". 3. To further complicate things, some of these point locations are just Place Names. Do I need to create a separate spreadsheet and address locator for these? Answers to any or all of these questions would be greatly apppreciated. I thank you in advance for your time and much needed help. Christi Nelson
