Address Management In order to display your data in Virtual Earth, it is necessary to assign accurate geographical coordinates to your addresses. Once coordinates are assigned, the data can be automatically displayed and analysed in Virtual Earth.  The process of attaching a coordinate to an address, geocoding, is made possible throughout the world by using postcodes and street segment ranges within MapPoint Geocoding Engine.  In Ireland, in the absence of postcodes, BizMaps has developed AddressLink, a state-of-the-art geocoding web service, and AutoAddress, an Address Entry validation service.   AddressLink   AutoAddress
