Geocoding #21

Open luqmaan opened 8 years ago

luqmaan commented 8 years ago

The plan is to

  1. Check with the CoA address point REST service first, which will take care of a large % of geocodes
  2. Do remaining geocodes via Mapzen or ArcGIS Online (maybe fall back to ArcGIS when Mapzen is missing stuff?)

The Mapzen geocoder is built on CoA address points, so the assumption is that if we can't find it in the CoA address service, we won't find it in Mapzen. I guess it's worth double checking...
