For an addr vector, the string distances are calculated between a reference addr vector (ref_addr). A list of matching reference addr vectors less than or equal to the specified optimal string alignment distances are returned. See stringdist::stringdist-metrics for more details on string metrics and the optimal string alignment (osa) method.

Usage

addr_match(
  x,
  ref_addr,
  stringdist_match = c("osa_lt_1", "exact"),
  match_street_type = TRUE,
  simplify = TRUE
)

addr_match_street_name_and_number(
  x,
  ref_addr,
  stringdist_match = c("osa_lt_1", "exact"),
  match_street_type = TRUE,
  simplify = TRUE
)

addr_match_street(
  x,
  ref_addr,
  stringdist_match = c("osa_lt_1", "exact"),
  match_street_type = TRUE
)

Arguments

x

an addr vector to match

ref_addr

an addr vector to search for matches in

stringdist_match

method for determining string match of street name: "osa_lt_1" requires an optimized string distance less than 1; "exact" requires an exact match

match_street_type

logical; require street type to be identical to match?

simplify

logical; randomly select one addr from multi-matches and return an addr() vector instead of a list? (empty addr vectors and NULL values are converted to NA)

Value

for addr_match() and addr_match_street_name_number(), a named list of possible addr matches for each addr in x

for addr_match_street, a list of possible addr matches for each addr in x (as ref_addr indices)
