Locate Address: This tool opens a dialog box at the bottom of the map where users can type in an address or cross street names. After the street address, zone (zip code), or cross streets blanks are filled-in, users must click the “Locate” button at the top of the dialog box and the system will display the address or cross street location on the map. It is possible the address or cross streets could match in more than one location. (Note: This is why providing the proper zip code is important). In the event more than one “match” is possible, a “candidate list” will appear on the left-hand side below the map. Possible matches appear in order of “matching score” from highest to lowest. A score of 100 is usually the best match. Users should click on the blue hyperlink number next to the address to zoom to the matched location.
