Hello Addressers,
We would like to move our editing into the LGIM and use the Address Data Management template but I am struggling with how to handle the complexity that is addressing in Illinois. In a nutshell, we have one block of a street that has multiple renditions of the name. Below are a few screen shots. One side of the street is incorporated and uses a full name of "S Milwaukee Ave" while the other side is unincorporated and uses a full name of "N Milwaukee Ave". As you can see from the screen shots, the address ranges vary widely too in addition to the pre-direction. I'm struggling to figure out how to use the LGIM template to model this situation. And, to make matters worse, this road is also known as "IL Route 21" so I would also want a centerline geocoder to be able to equally geocode "210 S Milwaukee Ave" or "210 S IL Route 21" or "24831 N Millwaukee Ave" or "24831 N IL Route 21". I don't see any allotment in the LGIM template for alternate address ranges or alternate prefix directions on the same centerline. Does anyone have a recommendation on how to handle this situation (of which there are MANY in Lake County, Illinois)? At present we have a script that physically copies the arc in place and gives it new attributes.
Thanks all!
