Rooftop Geocoding

Digitized geo locations have become an integral part of offline and online navigation. Rooftop geocoding allows you to turn addresses into a pair of geo coordinates. You can use these coordinates for a variety of purposes, from building travel routes to searching for customer buying patterns.

If your application supports geographic coordinates, you can track customer movements and make offers according to their location. You can also gather a significant amount of data for further implementation in your sales and marketing campaign.

Let's take a closer look at what geocoding is all about.

What Is Rooftop Geocoding?

Rooftop geocoding is the process of gathering location data from several sources and using special algorithms to turn a street address on the map into a pair of coordinates, namely latitude and longitude.

The rooftop part of geocoding means that the location you get is actually the location of the roof of a specific building at that address.

Geocoding allows companies to find different locations based on their customers' demographics and gather relevant data about customer preferences.

Companies can use rooftop geocoding to analyze customer behavior, identify top territories for sales, plan delivery routes, and much more. Accurate data that is gathered by using geocoding can make significant contributions to the quality of sales and marketing campaigns.

Companies that can benefit from rooftop geocoding are:

  • Shipping businesses - when you need to deliver parcels, documents, or other items to different locations, geocodes can help your employees find exact addresses. They can also use this information to plan the fastest route.
