shrug-l: FL data for Address Geocoding

[Brian May]

In most cases, parcels are the most accurate source available for 
geocoding addresses. MapWise provides geocodable parcels by county in 
shapefile or personal geodatabase format for much of the state, and the 
remaining counties can be done upon request. Almost all appraisers 
provide an accurate site address for parcels with structures, but not 
many provide a city and zipcode for geocoding addresses. We add this 
info (by digitizing accurate zipcode boundaries if needed) and 
standardize it, as well as a variety of other parcel attributes. We can 
provide parcels polygons and/or centroids to use for geocoding your 
address data. For example, you can use ArcGIS's geocoding tool (or other 
software) to match your address table to the parcel centroids to create 
a new point shapefile of your customers. The lat/long can be 
automatically appended to the table as well. High-res aerials can be 
used to check the results and make changes. We have a web service API as 
well if you prefer to programmatically access address info and parcel 
info via web services.

I believe that it is Navteq for streets, Group 1 (Pitney-Bowes) for 
parcel centriod and building footprint.  I will check with the Virtual 
Earth/MapPoint Team and report back.  It may be stated in their EULA.

Do you know what source is for the Microsoft GIS data? I took a look at 
their site and can't find the GIS metadata info that I would normally 
expect to find.

Check out the Microsoft MapPoint Web Service:
 
http://www.microsoft.com/mappoint/products/webservice/features.mspx 
<http://www.microsoft.com/mappoint/products/webservice/features.mspx> 
 
The MapPoint Web Service utilizes the Group 1's roof top geocoding for 
batch processing.  Very accurate and 99.9% uptime.
 
Also, you could use the Virtual Earth API for single point geocoding:
 
http://www.microsoft.com/virtualearth/components.mspx 
<http://www.microsoft.com/virtualearth/components.mspx> 
 
"Geocoding. Get the most accurate locations around the world with the 
highest quality geo-coders, such as Group1 GeoStan geocoding engine in 
the U.S." - MSFT VE Site
 
No, need to purchase data or pay outrageous licensing costs for storing 
it :-)

Hello everyone:
I am looking for the most updated FL data for address geocoding 
(regardless of the price). I would appreciate greatly if you could share 
your knowledge about and/or experience with the existing, 
most-up-to-date (i.e. best :-)) geocoding data available for Florida.
Thanks in advance,
