The GeoCoder returns a field labelled "location_type," which for an exact hit will be "ROOFTOP." In your case where it was unable to find the complete address, it would probably return "APPROXIMATE" or "GEOMETRIC_CENTER" depending on how much it was able to find.
I discovered that addresses with apartment numbers would almost always return "APPROXIMATE," when the very same address with the apartment number omitted would return "ROOFTOP." I can speculate on a reason for this, but for my purposes I just shear off the apartment number before submitting the address. - Jeff On May 19, 2:04 am, bella <chujingjing2...@gmail.com> wrote: > I use address " ss,Beijing" as Geocoding request.
