What is the correct Address format ?

    Last updated on July 22nd, 2025

    To ensure smooth address processing in our system, it's important to follow the correct formatting guidelines. Our system uses Address Normalization, which validates and standardizes location details to accurately retrieve geographic coordinates.

    Correct Address Format

    Addresses must be entered using the following format:

    • Address Line 1: Street name and number
    • Address Line 2: Additional address details (e.g., suite, floor, building)

    Why This Matters

    When a location is added, our system runs it through a normalization process. Address Normalization uses the combination of Address Line 1, Zip Code, and City to verify the location and generate its geo-coordinates.

    Incorrect formatting may prevent the system from successfully verifying the address.

    Important

    Do not include extra details such as floor numbers or suites in Address Line 1. This can interfere with the normalization process.

    Examples

    Incorrect:

    • Address Line 1: 66 Towers St, 2nd Floor
    • Address Line 2: (left blank)

    This disrupts normalization due to the extra information in Address Line 1.

    Correct:

    • Address Line 1: 66 Towers St.
    • Address Line 2: 2nd Floor

    This format ensures accurate address validation and geo-location.

    Summary

    To avoid address errors and improve system accuracy:

    • Use Address Line 1 for only street name and number
    • Use Address Line 2 for any additional location details
    • Always separate address components clearly
