GeoSearch Input Tool

Features

The GeoSearch Input Tool is intended to be used as part of a larger model, as it allows the user to input an address that is converted to a geometry object.

1. Takes a specified address as input.
2. Issues a geocoding request to the Esri World Geocoding Service and captures the response.
3. Parces, processes, and creates point geometry representing the best match to the input address.

The output is an ArcGIS Feature Layer sourced by an in-memory feature class that can be used as input to other ArcGIS geoprocessing functions.

Instructions

1. Download the package.
2. Using ArcCatalog or ArcMap, browse to Toolbox.tbx and double-click on Input Address to launch the tool.
3. The tool is already configured and should require no additional changes. It can be used within a larger model, if desired, and published to a geoprocessing service. See the BufferModel model in the Toolbox for an example.

Requirements

• ArcGIS Desktop 10.2 or higher
