MLD Extended Attributes including APN and Elevation

(USA) This feature provides access to extended attributes associated with an addressable location that has a pbKey. When matching addresses with Master Location Data (MLD), Global Geocoding Module returns additional property information associated with the address, such as Assessor's Parcel Number (APN), Elevation, Address Type, and Lot Size. APN can be used to identify the parcel so the parcel ID can be linked to additional information for the insurance industry, such as property and insurance risk attributes. For more detail, see the full list of output fields below.
