Adding Address Information to Points from Nearby Road Features

If one or more point features are selected, the Add Address Information from Roads to Selected Point(s) option will appear when right-clicking. Selecting this option will cause each point to be examined to find the nearest line feature, and, if it contains addressing information, for the address of the nearest point on the line to the point feature to be stored as address attributes with the point feature. A dialog will appear to prompt you for how far from each point that you want to search for a line feature with addressing information.

The following attribute names for line features are recognized as containing address information:

FR_ADDR_R, R_FROM_ADR - starting address number on the right side of the road
FR_ADDR_L, L_FROM_ADR - starting address number on the left side of the road
TO_ADDR_R, R_TO_ADR - ending address number on the right side of the road
TO_ADDR_L, L_TO_ADR - ending address number on the left side of the road
PLACE_R, R_CITY - city or town on the right side of the road
PLACE_L, L_CITY - city or town on the left side of the road

COUNTRY_R, R_COUNTRY - country on right side of the road

PARITY_R, R_PARITY - numeric parity value on right side of road. A value of 1 means odd parity (addresses are all odd), a value of 2 means even parity (address are all even), and a value of 3 means there is not parity (addresses can be even and odd). For any other value the parity will be automatically determined.
PARITY_L, L_PARITY - numeric parity value on left side of road. A value of 1 means odd parity (addresses are all odd), a value of 2 means even parity (address are all even), and a value of 3 means there is not parity (addresses can be even and odd). For any other value the parity will be automatically determined.

Only the start and end address number are absolutely required for the side of a road to have addressing, in addition to the road having a name.
