Geocode Dataflow Sample Input and Output Data Version 1.0

  • Article

Note

If you are a new user, see Sample Input and Output v2.0 to learn how to use the latest version 2.0 of the data schema.

The following examples show sample input and output data for version 1.0 of the Geocode Dataflow. The input data can be provided in an XML format or as sets of values separated by pipe (|), comma, or tab characters. The output data is provided in the same format as the input data. The data in these examples contains location data to geocode and latitude and longitude pairs to reverse geocode. For information about the version 1.0 data schema, see Data Schema v1.0.

The input data must use UTF-8 encoding.
