Geocoding Configuration

The webmap supports two different methods of geolocating addresses.

Locating using a Geolocation service

1. Get the REST URL for the geolocation service.
2. In the Lucity Administration Tool go to System > Settings > GIS Web tab.
3. Put the URL for the geolocation service in the URL for Geocoding Service or URL to parcel layer in map service field.
4. Save Changes

Locating using a Parcel Layer

1. Tell the webmap that it is a parcel service instead of a geocoding service
   • In the Lucity Administration Tool go to System > Settings > GIS Web tab.
   • Set the Use an address layer for address queries instead of geocoding service option to TRUE.
2. Specify a Parcel Layer
   1. Get the REST URL for the map service that contains the parcel layer.
   2. Get the layer index number for the parcel layer.
   3. In the Lucity Administration Tool go to System > Settings > GIS Web tab.
   4. Put the URL for the geolocation service in the URL for Geocoding Service or URL to parcel layer in map service field.
   5. Add the layer index to the end of the URL
   6. The end of the URL will look something like this: ...rest/services/baselayers/MapServer/10.
3. Specify a query template that the app can use when querying.
   • This is explained in the Comma separated criteria to use for... field found on the System > Settings > GIS Web tab.
