The Esri World Geocoder has been updated several times since your question was first posted. Below are the results for the same coordinate with the current release of the Esri World Geocoder. {  "address": {   "Match_addr": "65-99 Edison Dr, Augusta, Maine, 04330",   "LongLabel": "65-99 Edison Dr, Augusta, ME, 04330, USA",   "ShortLabel": "65-99 Edison Dr",   "Addr_type": "StreetAddress",   "Type": "",   "PlaceName": "",   "AddNum": "83",   "Address": "83 Edison Dr",   "Block": "",   "Sector": "",   "Neighborhood": "",   "District": "",   "City": "Augusta",   "MetroArea": "",   "Subregion": "Kennebec",   "Region": "Maine",   "Territory": "",   "Postal": "04330",   "PostalExt": "",   "CountryCode": "USA"  },  "location": {   "x": -69.81843118824392,   "y": 44.313088731759194,   "spatialReference": {    "wkid": 4326,    "latestWkid": 4326   }  } } ...

To geocode parcel numbers create a locator based on the General - Single Field mapping the parcel number to the "Key Field" or General - Gazetteer style mapping the parcel number to the "Place Name" field. If the locator will be published as a geocode service, it's recommended to use the General - Gazetteer style. ... View more

I have a few questions and comments... Are you creating your own address locator to geocode the customers and offices in the spreadsheet? If you did you could use the General - Gazetteer locator style to build an address locator to search for office name, Dual Range or Single House style to search for addresses, then combine the two into a composite locator that could be published as a geocode service that the web app can use. Will you be using the World Geocoding Service and an ArcGIS Online subscription for geocoding the addresses? You would need a geocode service to be able to have the web application make REST calls to the geocode service and return matches for the address. What are you going to use to host the web map (app)? Is the database part of an enterprise geodatabase? What licence of ArcGIS Desktop do you have? You maybe able to make use of the dynamic feature class mentioned at step 7 in this help topic, Geocoding a table of addresses in ArcMap—Help | ArcGIS Desktop . This would require that the table (database) of addresses and the geocode result be stored in the same geodatabase as a composite relationship class between the table and output feature class is created when the dynamic feature class option is selected. The idea is that if the input address table is updated within ArcGIS Desktop manually or pragmatically that the address will get automatically geocoded and added to the output feature class in the geodatabase. ...

Afizah: There is a setting in the address locator properties that you need to turn on so that the information that was mapped in the Additional Field when the locator was built is returned in the User_fld. Set "Write user-specified additional output fields" to 'Yes'. -Shana ... View more

Based on your post I don't have all of the information about the other locators that are participating in the composite locator with the Gazetteer locator to give more detailed response to your question about the General.lot.xml file. However, I would suggest that when you build the address locator(s) based on styles not the Gazetteer, build the locator without mapping city and zip. This will allow you to enter an address w/o city or zip code, but you will need to follow the steps in the following article to modify the locator properties to allow searching for addresses without a zone like city or zip. Bug: Dual Ranges address locators created with ArcGIS for Desktop 10.1 and higher do not return matches  The suggestions functionality does not index the house number, only the street name, and is not correlated to the house number.

Here is the documentation that outlines the limitations for using Excel spreadsheets in ArcGIS Pro https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/data/excel/work-with-excel-in-arcgis-pro.htm. You can use the Table to Excel conversion tool in ArcCatalog or ArcMap to export the sheet to a new Excel .xls file to use in ArcGIS Pro if you need to keep the data in Excel format. ... View more

Emily, You would want to reduce both the max and suggested, which would reduce the maximum amount of records that can be sent in one batch. However, this will not limit the total number of geocodes that the user can do, because they can send many batches. Another way to limit the server usage is to reduce the min and max number of instances (SOCs). If set to 1, only one user at a time can use the service. ... View more

You're welcome. Have you considered using the General - Gazetteer style to create a locator for your structures and landmarks, then adding the Gazetteer type locator to a composite with your other address locator(s)? Then publish the composite, which will allow you to search for addresses, intersections, structures and landmarks. ... View more

Phil: Development is aware of the limitation in the current technology regarding suggestions for geoocde services and have plans to address the behavior in a future release. Currently, the suggestion index is only built for street name and no suggestion index is built for house number or subaddress unit. Because of this, there is no correlation between the street name and house number or subaddress unit. ... View more

The place-name alias table mentioned in the original post is for things like being able to type "City Hall" and have it match to the address for City Hall. This is currently not supported by a geocode service, however, the alternate name table is what you need for alternate street names where you can have a 1-to-Many relationship between the features in the primary table and the alternate or abbreviated street names. The alternate street name table is supported when publishing the locator as a geocode service. ... View more

Bendicht: We are aware of this behavior and will try to address the problem as soon as we can. In the meantime, I would suggest creating a Project Template ( the button is next to Map File on the Share tab) instead of the Map File and use the Project Template to create projects from that contains the feature and layer provider.

Julia: The side offset setting only applies to address locators based on the Dual Ranges and One Range styles that use lines as reference data. It would not apply to a locator that was based on points or polygons, which is the reference data used by the General - SingleField and General - Gazetteer styles. If you knew the distance and direction of the tree from the address or center of the parcel you could use spatial offset to search for the address as described in this help topic. About finding an address—Help | ArcGIS Desktop  ...
