Abstract: An automated computer geocoding system and method is described having a plurality of geographic datasets stored in a computer memory. The geographic datasets include at least one point level dataset, street level dataset, and geographic level dataset. As output, geocoded data is provided with positional accuracy indicators. In a first step, an address to be geocoded is received by the system. The system determines whether corresponding geocode data exists in one or more of the geographic datasets. A geographic dataset is selected that provides a highest level of resolution and that also includes corresponding geocode data for the address. A geocoded coordinate for the address is output, as found in the geographic dataset that was selected. An offset value for the geocoded coordinate is calculated and output with the coordinates. The offset value is determined as a function of geographic characteristics of the geographic dataset that was selected.
