Re: [WISPA] [WISPA Members] Possible way to create a free tool for 477 reporting data at the tract level

All I can say is guys like you (Cameron) that donate their time and effort
and have the ability to do this - -well - - are just fine folks. I wish I
had a little Geek in me, but I am full blooded redneck :-)   I can't even
code a combination lock, but if you ever get this way I can surely make you
a gumbo or jambalaya that is fittin for a King or grill you some Redfish
that you'll never forget.

OK, so I got distracted by my business today and won't have this ready 
until Monday or Tuesday. However, it will do a lot. It will take an 
input file of csv format, and not only will it return the properly 
formatted file for the 477 form, but it will show you all your customers 
on a map with the census tracts overlaid so you can visually verify. 
I'll keep the list updated as to the progress.

Yes, as far as I know my entire area has 911 addressing.  That would 
make a huge difference.

Weird. Out of curiosity, does your area use 911 addressing? Most of our
problems were with customers where the address is just a rural route, which
is just about impossible to geocode (especially if there are three tracts
covering the same postal route and half the addresses don't even have box
numbers).

I am mostly rural with about 370 subs.  It hit all but 4 of them that 
had valid addresses.  It showed me 2 that I had mistyped addresses and 2

How accurate is it, though? We actually tried something similar to that, and
when we started reviewing and sanity-checking its output, got maybe 50%
accuracy. Nearly 100% accurate in city areas, much lower for our rural
customers. I ended up having one of my techs basically re-do the whole thing
by hand over the course of a couple quiet Saturdays. At that time, we had
around 1000 addresses to geocode, so it was feasible, but it might not be so
for larger outfits.

The USC site the Brian found last night does it all.
Submit a database, get back a database with your lat, lon, county fips 
and tract.
Database can be .csv or MS Access, maybe more.

I would be glad to start a $$ pool to have someone develop a tool for WISPA
members to get the data we need for the form 477. On second thoughts - - it
would be better if we allowed everyone to use it (members and non members)
if we could just get them to report!

Re: [WISPA] [WISPA Members] Possible way to create a free tool for 477 reporting data at the tract level

2010-02-17 Thread Scott Reed
I will be working on that in the morning as I have all my customers 
geocoded for Lat/Lon, but need the census stuff.  When I get something 
that works, I will get it to Rick.

WISPA will gladly place this on our webpage if we can find someone to help
get it in place.  

 

Thanks,

Rick

I just found this web page that talks about a free API that could be used on
a web page to do address lookup/geocode as well as map to the proper census
tract and/or census block. I'm not a programmer but maybe someone on the
list could look at this and put together something that could be used.
Ideally it would do both single and batch lookups. If there is a way to also
standardize the address fields to increase the accuracy that would be a big
plus.
