Apologies this has been discussed. I searched the archives, did not find an
answer.
Description of the problem:
PostGIS version =
POSTGIS="2.0.2 r10789" GEOS="3.3.8-CAPI-1.7.8" PROJ="Rel. 4.8.0, 6 March 2012"
GDAL="GDAL 1.10.0, released 2013/04/24" LIBXML="2.8.0" LIBJSON="UNKNOWN" RASTER
When geocoding some addresses (perhaps, unincorporated areas), the returned
results are not even in the ballpark.
Example:
select * from geocode('46896 California 1, Big Sur, CA 93920');

Dana Point, CA is ~350 miles from Big Sur, CA.
The search zip (93920) doesn't appear to be in zip_lookup or zip_lookup_all.
"Big Sur" doesn't appear to be in place.
I have voter registration data that includes full addresses for registered
voters. Is there a way to add this data to the geocoder tables so that
geocoding returns something in the ballpark for addresses such as this?
Thank you.
