This function uses the trained dedupe model included with the package to link one or more parcel identifiers to a vector of input addresses.

link_parcel(x, threshold = 0.2)

Arguments

x

a vector of address character strings

threshold

potential matches will only be returned if their score exceeds this value (from 0 to 1)

Value

a tibble with a column of unique, matched addresses input as x along with columns for their parcel_id(s) and matching score(s) (use this as a lookup table for assigning parcel_id in other workflows, making decisions about what to do with multiple matches and matching thresholds, etc.)

Details

Note that one address can be linked to more than one parcel (e.g., "323 Fifth" on https://wedge3.hcauditor.org/search_results). In this case, the input address will have multiple rows, one for each of the multiple matches.
