Abstract
A device may obtain a location. The device may process the location to form a processed address. The device may obtain, from a plurality of geocoders, a plurality of sets of geographic coordinate candidates for the processed address. The device may obtain confidence information regarding the plurality of sets of geographic coordinate candidates. The device may determine a set of geographic coordinates for the processed address based on the plurality of sets of geographic coordinate candidates and the confidence information regarding the plurality of sets of geographic coordinate candidates. The device may assign a key to the processed address and the set of geographic coordinates for the processed address. The device may store, in a storage device, the key in association with the processed address and the set of geographic coordinates to facilitate access to the processed address or the set of geographic coordinates for the processed address.
