  • Patent number: 10330487
    Abstract: An enhanced geocoding module may be used to determine various physical addresses located on the same street. The enhanced geocoding module may create a grid around a predetermined location and request the physical addresses of various coordinate points located on the grid. Additional features of the module may include a display that displays the grid with physical addresses located on the same street, various statistics related to a user of the enhanced geocoding module, and a color-coded scheme that indicates the status of individuals/groups located at the physical addresses. Furthermore, an enhanced disposition monitoring module may be provided in a plurality of computing devices (e.g., a handheld computing device, a remote server, etc.) to receive, transmit, maintain, and/or analyze disposition and related information that may be associated with geocoded information (e.g., a street address).
