Address Validation
Physical addresses anchor hundreds of digital data points, which are used in every aspect of organizational decision-making.
They have to be right.
Learn about our software and services to validate and correct your addresses – addresses in the US, Canada and around the world.
In the past, a bad address meant a returned mailer, maybe a failed promotion or loss of a customer.
Today, a bad address can represent fraud or result in the loss of millions of dollars from poorly completed risk assessments or opportunity analyses. Even worse, address issues may show up in regulatory filings that could literally cost you your business. That’s on top of significant additional costs in today’s lightning fast e-commerce industry.
As our reliance on IT grows, the cost of bad location data just keeps getting higher.
And due to the inter-relationships between datasets, bad data multiplies like a virus.

Introducing the Signal And Noise Blog – Topics Include Mapping, Spatial, Geocoding, Address Correction, Geographic Data
One of our goals in communicating to you is to provide the most important information that helps you identify the signal and the noise. Think of listening to a radio station with static. The static is the noise and the voices or music are the signal. Our brains do a great job of filtering audio and there are tools to draw out the signal and suppress the noise. This blog is about focusing on the signal for various topics and, when possible, we’ll describe the noise. Unlike the radio static that is random, some of the noise in the marketplace may seem like signal, but it’s not.
