No. Our need/use of ArcGIS Pro has really dropped at this point (we are sticking with ArcMap for the short term) so it isn’t a huge deal right now but we need the ability to search for unit level addresses. Thanks for checking back, Bryan ... View more

Here is a quick video to show the performance I am seeing in Pro vs ArcMap. ... View more

I have been using the Geodatabase class to access a feature class and get info. However, the performance is horrible!! I was hoping to use the Oracle.ManageDataAccess control to go straight against the database views and hopefully get better performance (this is what I have done in my ArcMap Add-Ins and the performance is great). I will look at the Database class but I assume it will be the same on a performance level. When I say bad performance here is an example. I am looking up a subdivision by object id. In ArcMap it takes less than a second to locate and highlight the subdivision in the map - basically I click the OK button and it shows up. In Pro, it takes close to 3 seconds to highlight the subdivision in the map. It isn't just the subdivision feature class either, I have seen this same type of performance with other feature classes. I am currently drawing nothing in the map - just highlight the subdivision. In this example, I am not using the Oracle.ManagedDataAccess class I am using the Geodatabase class in Pro SDK or ArcObjects for ArcMap. I am experiencing the same slowness with other simple database type queries where I only want attribute info which is why I wanted to try the Oracle data provider. My preference is to stick with ArcGIS Pro SDK objects and controls. Is this behavior typical? If so, I will move on, finish the code, and live with the poor performance. If not, I would like to build it right the first time. Thanks. ... View more

The behavior in the original post is expected behavior for subaddress addresses, a unit indicator (#, APT, UNIT...) is required to return address matches. The problem I am seeing is - I can't find the subaddress addresses even if I use a unit indicator (#, APT, UNIT...). The locator only will find an address match that doesn't have a subaddress. Here is screen shot showing a search for 606 main st #150 - which results in the locator ONLY finding 606 MAIN ST and not the subaddress. It would be great to understand the use case for providing suggestions for subaddress, as well as, returning all units associated with the base address when searching for the base address. The image below actually shows 2 problems. First, the need for subaddresses in suggestions. Without subaddresses in suggestions - you won't know that 2220 CLINCH AVE #1 even exists. Second, and the bigger problem here, even if you know 2220 CLINCH AVE #1 exists you can't find it. Now, should you have a parcel with out a base address of 2220 CLINCH AVE? I don't know, I am not over addressing.....I just type on my little keyboard and try to make things work  At what point in typing the address do you expect the unit suggestion be returned? If you are searching an address for a building with 1,000 units, are you expecting to scroll through all 1,000 unit candidates to find what you are looking for?  I guess in my mind, when you type 606 MAIN it would be nice to see a list of suggestions that included 606 MAIN ST, 606 MAIN ST #100, 606 MAIN ST #150, 606 MAINTENANCE LN.... at least you would know there are several units at 606 MAIN ST. Now, as a programmer, I can see a couple of problems on how to make this work well in all situations (especially if you have a building with 1000 units), but you are only showing a few suggestions (like 6 -10 or so). I really don't think anyone is expecting to scroll through a 1000 suggestions. I can also see an argument that the unit numbers keep you from seeing 606 MAINTENANCE LN as a suggestion because all of the unit suggestions from 606 MAIN ST push it off the list. However, once you get to 606 MAINT the MAIN ST suggestions drop off the suggestion list and you will see what you need. So, I am not sure what the best solution is here for including units in the list of suggestions but going back to image #2 above - having units in the suggestion list would help you find 2220 CLINCH AVE #1. Thanks for taking the time to look at this. I have to say the dialog with the Esri staff on this issue has been outstanding. I know I need to open a support ticket - I have just been sidetracked on a couple of priority tasks. ... View more

 I thought the issue was that you were searching for the address with the unit number and still not returning any results. If I use the Create Locator tool against our Oracle SDE database, then yes, this is exactly the problem. I can key in the address with the unit number and it isn't found (not as a suggestion or candidate). It only finds the address without a unit number (see screen shot below). This is a real problem when all the addresses on the parcel have unit numbers (see the 2220 Clinch Ave screen shot above). The screen shot below is showing the results when using a locator created from the Oracle SDE feature class: Locators created using a local copy of the data will locate the addresses with units. I wanted to add this note for clarification for anyone else reading the thread. Thanks and I will open a support ticket today. ... View more

I did "Enable Suggestions" for the "Create Address Locator" but they seem to be disabled for those locators. The "Create Locator" tool doesn't have a "Use Suggestions" option that I noticed - it just works automatically. Here is a shot of the Locate Settings: KnoxCo_AddrPnt_OldStyle was built using the "Create Address Locator". You can enable the locator but not the Use Suggestions option. It is always disabled for that locator. ... View more

Thanks. I will reach out to Esri Support. Here is some more info in case it sparks an idea: I created a local copy of the data and I was able to find the address on the map but the units still didn't show up as suggestions or candidates. In the locator created from the local data, I was able to locate the address on the map but I had to key-in the house number, street name, and unit number. For example: 606 Main St #150 I use the Oracle SDE data to create a locator with the "Create Address Locator" geoprocessing task. Since suggestions don't work with those I wasn't able to test that functionality, however I was able to find the unit addresses. Here is a screen shot showing the results: ... View more

To confirm, is the issue that the units are not appearing as suggestions, or you are unable to actually locate using a unit as well? Both actually. Address points with units do not appear as suggestions and I am unable to locate them. It is like it simply doesn't know they exist. Which is odd because they work fine in our ArcMap/ArcGIS Server locator.   Let me create a local dataset and give it a whirl. Thanks for the help!! ... View more

What version of Pro are you using? 2.4 What is the data format of your Unit field (e.g. text, numeric)? Text What is the data format of your Unit Type field (e.g. text, numeric)? Text Do you have any other fields mapped that you are not showing in your screenshot? Yes - see image below ... View more

Yes, I was using the new Create Locator tool in ArcGIS Pro 2.4. Addresses are from a point feature class stored in an Oracle SDE database. "Have you tested with other unit types ("#", "Unit", "Apt", "Bldg", etc.)?" Not sure I understand this question. We have a variety of unit types stored in the UNIT_TYPE field. Values include SUITE, APT, UNIT, etc. So when you say "have you tested.." I am not sure what you are asking. I have tested addresses with both a SUITE and an APT unit type. I am expecting to put in "606 MAIN" and have candidates with units show up in the candidates list. What I am seeing is just the primary 606 MAIN ST address (see third image below).   I have attached some screen shots showing how I defined the locator and what I am seeing when using it. I only showed the "Field Mapping" values that I thought were relevant. If you need to see all of them I can create more screen shots. Using the locator in Pro - I would have expected to see all of the 606 Main St addresses in the list box (or at least the first 6 addresses). Even worse, the address points for 2220 CLINCH AVE, which all have unit numbers, never show up in the list of candidates.   Thanks for the help. ... View more
