Qlik Geocoding

Qlik Geocoding^® is a subscription service that adds address data lookup functionality to Qlik GeoOperations for Qlik Cloud and QlikGeoAnalytics Base and Enterprise for Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.

Qlik Geocoding is remotely hosted by Qlik. It provides geographical (GPS) coordinates corresponding to a location, such as a street address and vice versa. Each address or individual coordinate set sent to the Qlik Geocoding server constitutes a lookup request, regardless of the extent to which resulting data is returned (e.g. an invalid or incomplete street address or GPS coordinates may result in non-discrete data or no data at all being returned). Up to five thousand (5,000) lookup requests may be sent in a single call to the Qlik Geocoding server. Geocoding is sold as a fixed quantity of lookup requests, where such quantity of lookups must be used within one (1) year from the date of purchase. Unused lookup requests remaining as of the date of expiration are forfeited.

Qlik Geocoding is accessed through QlikGeoAnalytics Connector or QlikGeoOperations using the operations “AddressPointLookup” and “PointToAddressLookup”. The service features both Forward Geocoding (address to point conversion) with the result including information about match level and location structure, and Reverse Geocoding (point to address conversion) which can be used for converting GPS coordinates to a location.
