ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government
The ArcGIS Solutions for State and Local Government solution offers a suite of capabilities that aid in maintaining an authoritative address repository, continuously improve the quality of address data, and share authoritative addresses with internal and external stakeholders. The solution comes with an ArcGIS Pro project designed to be utilized by mapping technicians, address verification teams and other personnel responsible for the gathering, maintenance, and use of road centerlines that are authoritative as well as valid site addresses and related postal addresses. It also includes a preconfigured ArcGIS Data Reviewer check that can be used for validating maintaining, enhancing, and confirming the integrity of address information.
Address data capture is a procedure that involves the collection of site and postal addresses for all buildings, structures and sites that require an identification number. The capture of this information is a crucial step in the development of a credible street and road network that enables safe and efficient commerce and service delivery.
The Address Data Management task lets you create a new address for your site feature by following the steps of the Add Site Addresses task. Site addresses are specific to the structure they are used for or a specific area within a parcel. A site address could be the entry point to a driveway which serves one or more houses on the parcel. The site address may also be the point of contact for a location to deliver services like the fire station.
You can add one or more distinct postal addresses to a website address. Postal addresses are linked to the structure of a building or other and provide contact details for the owner or occupant. The site address feature classification and type schema is dependent on a status field that permits local authorities to classify features as pending, temporary, or current.
Imagine that you are a supervisor for an authority for addressing, and your team has been assigned to investigate an incorrect address report that was supplied by an external stakeholder. Open the Address Field Inventory map in the ArcGIS Workforce App and search for the address. Select the address that is missing and then tap Edit. Enter the correct details for the address, which includes the name of the street and the municipality. Then, tap Submit (iOS) or the check mark (Android).
ArcGIS Pro Project
ArcGIS Pro projects allow you to organize and store your work. They also provide access to a range of tools and functions. A project can be an array of scenes, maps, layers, and layouts that display your data as you would like to see it. It could also include links to folders, databases and other resources for importing and exporting data.
Each item in a particular project is accompanied by a set or attributes that define it or its metadata. A project's metadata can help you identify items, analyze them, and determine which ones are suitable to apply to your current task. It can also be used to document the project's contents. Metadata can be used to describe a map, or an entire scene. Clicking the Properties button in the toolbar, or the Details window, allows you to modify the metadata of every item in the Project.
ArcGIS Pro is reusable. The elements within the project (such as scenes and maps) can be copied into other projects. Project components (such a geodatabases or toolboxes) can also be moved from one place to another. Many items can also be accessed through connections without having to store them in the project file.
When you start ArcGIS Pro, the Project tab appears on the main page, with options to open a recent project or create a new project using a template. For instance, you can create a new project using the Map template, which opens with a map view showing a topographic basemap.
You can save a project to a location on your local computer or to a folder in your portal of choice. The default location for projects is C: Users username> Documents ArcGIS Projects. If click this link want to save the project to an appropriate folder, you can choose the Create a Folder for this local project checkbox on the New Project dialog box.
It is a good idea to keep your data, ArcGIS Pro installation, and project files all on the same computer in order to cut down the amount of communication. In some instances, however, you can't find these components on the same machine, or you may want to share your project files, data and other resources over a network.
Data Assistant Add-in
The Data Assistant Add-in provides a set of focused tools organized on a Data Assistant toolbar. These tools allow you to create source-target configuration files and load or replace data.
These tools, when used in combination with the Community Data Aggregation Solution, enable staff to transform and load sources of data into a layer that can be used by a community and automate updates on a regular basis. With these tools, you can configure the solution to meet the specific needs of your organization.
Install the Data Assistant Add-in on each ArcGIS Pro computer that will be used to migrate data to one or more layers of community. To download the add-in go to the Content section of ArcGIS and click on the Data Assistant item.
Follow the instructions for installation once the add-in has been downloaded. You must close all open ArcGIS apps before you can start a new ArcGIS Pro. Once you have installed the add-in you can start the add-in using the Data Assistant icon in the ArcGIS Pro toolbar.
You can create a Data Mapping File by using the Configure Data Mapping Dialog Box when the Data Assistant Addin is launched. This dialog box lets you to define the field mapping and settings for the source-target configuration. Once set the Replace Data tool will replace the data in the target layer from the source layer in accordance with the settings that you select. This tool allows you to stage results locally and skip final processing if you are only replacing data in a subset of records.
Data Management

A more sophisticated solution such as PostGrid is CASS-certified which means it is able to connect to the official USPS database to verify an address instantly. This can save you time and improve data quality.
This problem can be solved by building an authoritative address repository to accommodate a variety of information needs and continuously improving its data quality through processes.

They can then go out in the field and use the application to gather new addresses and verify information from crowdsourced sources. Once they have completed the task they can add their addresses to the office work assignment to get them added to the database and incorporated in the authoritative layer of site addresses.
