Street Names with Fractions

TreyCrane — Mon, 01 Jul 2013 18:08:50 GMT

Has anyone worked with street address locators that can deal with street names with fractions as a part of the official name? For example: W 10TH 1/8 AVE or N Bear Creek 1/2 ST. I'm working with the US Streets Locator and have had no luck getting it to work. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
Trey

I just tried it and it works for me. But.... I'm still using 9.3.1 locators. Might be one of the changes in 10.0 & 10.1 if you that's what you are using.

Maybe make sure your intersection designator / and \ are turned off?

Trey,

Check out this post:

Specifically post #35 but responses by me will lend some context to how our data is set up and how our version of the locator is used.

It may depend on where your fractional is located--as part of the house number field or in a separate field. Ours is in a separate field. The other locator modification in the post above handles fractionals if they are in the house number field.
