LightBox Geocoding API

Number of APIs: 2

Overview

The LightBox Geocoding API confirms an address as admissible and reliable. The API uses advanced logic and address-matching principles to standardize and correct the predominant majority of North American addresses, making adjustments to formatting, spelling, missing information, and component standardization so that an address can be matched against LightBox’s market-leading Master Address Repository for the United States and Canada. The service recognizes both civic and postal addresses, including rural routes, PO boxes, and postal station information, and cross-correlates them to ensure a high-quality result.
