Tag components of an address string

The address components are tagged using a rust port of usaddress. Component names are based upon the United States Thoroughfare, Landmark, and Postal Address Data Standard.

Usage

addr_tag(x, clean_address_text = TRUE)

Arguments

x: a character vector of addresses
clean_address_text: logical; use clean_address_text() to clean addresses prior to tagging?

Value

a list, the same length as x, of named character vectors of address component tags; each vector contains all space-separated elements of the cleaned address and are each named based on inferred address labels (see Details)
