Definition of geocoding in English English dictionary
- Process by which imagery is corrected for all source-dependent errors and geometrically transformed to the desired map projection, being resampled to a standard square pixel size
- The cross-referencing between specifically recorded x,y co-ordinates of a location, relative to a standard reference grid such as the UK's National Grid, and non-geographic data such as addresses or post-codes In this way the accessing of the non-geographic data allows locations to be accurately mapped
- The process of tying an image to the area of the Earth's surface that it covers This process is performed by identifying the coordinates of notable locations (called ground control points and represented by points such as an intersection between roads) on the Earth's surface and in the image in question and tying those coordinates to that point on the image Subsequent to tying these ground control points to their geographic coordinates on the Earth, every point in the image is tied to the geographic coordinate frame established by the ground control points As more ground control points are collected, the accuracy of the image's geocoding improves Geocoding (67K jpg)
- Conversion of analog into digital
- Geographic coding is a process of mapping data by attaching longitude and latitude (x,y) co-ordinates based on a spatial reference
- The activity of defining the position of geographical objects relative to a standard reference grid
- (Spatial User's Guide and Reference)
- The conversion of features found on an analog map into a computer-digital form In this process, the spatial location of the various features is referenced geographically to a coordinate system used in the computer's software system
- Geocoding is also commonly known as address matching It is the process of creating a spatial description of a place, such as a point feature from a nonspatial description of that place, like a street address Recorded x, y coordinates of a location are cross-referencing between a standard reference grid and non-geographic data such as addresses or zip codes to accurately map that location In order to geocode, a geocoding service must first be defined
- (Spatial User's Guide and Reference; search in this book)
- The process by which the geographic coordinates of a location are determined by its address, postal code, or other explicitly non-geographic descriptor
- The process of assigning geographic locations to attribute data
- Using latitude and longitude data from the GPS receiver to determine the map location, and (with software) find the exact street address or block address
- Process of defining the position of geographical features relative to some reference grid
- Code structure used by the Geographic Information System to accumulate data by geographic locations
- The process whereby addresses are segmented by county, MSA, postal route, etc , in order to compare them with information about the demographics and psychographics of those geographies Geocoding is integral to demographically-enhanced mailing lists and cluster analysis
