Street Search is part of Melissa Data's WebSmart Web Service.

The WebSmart Services are a collection of services that can be accessed by any application, allowing you to incorporate Melissa Data’s technology into your programs without worrying about continually downloading and installing updates.

Street Search

The Web Smart Street Search service matches a street name or just a partial street name and returns any valid addresses that match that pattern.

Used in conjunction with the Web Smart Address Verifier, Street Search can be used to match incorrect or misspelled street names, list possible ranges for a street or a highrise and generate probable suggestions for end users to select. For example, if “123 Main” matches both “123 Main St” and “123 Main Ave” in the same ZIP Code, the Address Verifier would return a multiple match error. Street Search can return all records that match that pattern in the same ZIP Code, allowing you to correct a partial or inaccurate address record that would otherwise result in an undeliverable mail piece.

• Added a new output field to the Street Search Response called “FullAddressLine”. The FullAddressLine property returns the complete full address line suggestion as opposed to individual parsed out components.

For example

With an input of:

31 mac, Santa Ana CA 92707

Street Search would give you a FullAddressLine record of:

2-98 Even E MACARTHUR CRES
