Description: Individual businesses are located by address geocoding—not all will have an exact location. The Esri geocoder integrates an address-based approach with more than forty-five million residential and commercial U.S. address records from the Tele Atlas Address Points database. This database maps street addresses to a physical location so each address is a fixed point and not an interpolation from an address range. The geocoder uses address locators in a cascading fallback approach to ensure a match for as many records as possible. The primary locator utilizes the Navteq Address Points database. The secondary locator utilizes the Navteq Street Address Range database. Records that did not match fall back to the geocode provided by Dun and Bradstreet.Businesses can be retrieved by their Standard Industrial Classification Code (SIC) as well as by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code and Location. The Dun and Bradstreet Business File can be used for locating both competitors and marketing opportunities. This data is current as of April 2013.
