steve_andersen Parsing Street Addresses?
I've got a need to break street addresses into their component parts. I start with:
MailingStreet: 2400 NW 63rd St
MailingCity: Seattle
MailingState: WA
MailingPostalCode: 98107
And convert it to this:
StreetNumber: 2400
StreetDirection: NW
StreetName: 63 rd
StreetType: St
City: Seattle
State: WA
Postal Code: 98107
The basic strategy is to regex the patterns. There are some libraries in other languages:
Java (http://jgeocoder.sourceforge.net/parser.html)
Python (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2007-June/446215.html)
etc.
Anyone taken this on in Apex and want some help making it work?
Thanks,
Steve
