I've read most of the documentation online about it, but it's not making sense. How do I get the base-layer to create the address locator from in the first place?

How do I get the base-layer to create the address locator from in the first place? </BLOCKQUOTE><BR /><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Are you asking how to create an address locator from a basemap in AGOL? This is not a supported workflow.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>You create address locators from </SPAN><SPAN style="text-decoration:underline;">your own source data</SPAN><SPAN>, for example based on a feature class of street features. The street features must have the appropriate attribute values (i.e., address information) that will enable you to create a new address locator. First, you would create the address locator in ArcGIS Desktop, next publish the locator as a geocoding service in ArcGIS Server, then it can be used in your AGOL organization.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>FYI, </SPAN><A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//002500000013000000">Creating an address locator</A><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Hope this helps,</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 07 May 2014 22:18:29 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/how-to-create-an-address-locator-to-be-used-in/m-p/81327#M3961 DerekLaw 2014-05-07T22:18:29Z Re: How to create an address locator to be used in geocoding https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/how-to-create-an-address-locator-to-be-used-in/m-p/81328#M3962 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Derek, </P><P></P><P>I didn't have my own source data to use, I just needed to find out where the esri streets data was located.
