While this isn't exactly Andy's problem, I have found that in the United States, using an apartment number in the address causes the "location type" to change from "Rooftop" to "Approximate." Even when it returns the same LatLng.
So to assure good results with the GeoCoder, I scrupuously remove anything that looks like an apartment number, floor, etc. before submitting the address. Remember that the Google Maps geocoder is designed to work on addresses, not place names. Using an address like "Orchid Center" is pushing it, even though I suspect that is exactly how mail is delivered there. - Jeff On Feb 14, 7:02 am, Andrew Leach <[email protected]> wrote: > On 14 February 2012 14:52, NAVDEEP LOHCHUBH <[email protected]> wrote: > > > hi andrew, > > > did you try to geocode orchid center, golf course road, sector-53, Gurgaon - > > state name is haryana and zip code 122002 > > > at this urlhttp://torontopulse.com/yellowpages/addlisting.aspx > > No, I did it athttp://www.acleach.me.uk/gmaps/streetview-infow2.htm > because I know that just uses the straightforward geocoder.
