preface

Address information is the starting point of all logistics distribution scenarios. There is no need to say much about the importance of this link. The accuracy and regularity of address information is the prerequisite for the smooth operation of all subsequent logistics links. It is hard for us to imagine that a wrong or non-standard recipient address will bring much trouble and burden to logistics companies and express delivery boys. Of course, there are also costs to end users, including recipients and senders.

In order to solve the problem of accuracy and standardization of address information, Tencent location services with years of deep experience in the logistics industry, as well as a huge and complete address database and administrative division information, officially launched the intelligent address resolution interface. Through the advanced address key information extraction technology, using intelligent mining algorithm to standardize the address information, the original chaotic and even wrong address information into accurate, in line with the logistics company’s standard format, so as to improve the processing efficiency of logistics companies, reduce the cost of reverse logistics.

Specifically, the intelligent address resolution interface can be used in the following four service scenarios.

A, address text, help you fill

When we place orders in e-commerce, O2O, take-out, express delivery and other scenarios, an essential link is to fill in the delivery address. Many people’s habit is to directly input a string of address text, or even with the aid of speech recognition, image recognition and other means to input. However, the address format expected by logistics companies is often very fine and segmented, as shown in the following figure:

How to do? Retype it in this format? Of course not! ourIntelligent address resolution interfaceWith the help of industry-leading address segmentation technology, it can accurately extract key address information in a large string of text, such as administrative division, residential building number, and so on, and automatically fill in the corresponding address field, so as to help users save input time, improve the use experience when placing an order.

Two, the address is wrong, help you identify

When users fill in the address, due to negligence or other reasons, there may be various errors in the address information, such as conflicts between administrative divisions.Or the specific address does not match the administrative division:In the above cases, if the service side uses the intelligent address resolution interface, it is like adding a pair of “fire eyes” to the application side. It can accurately and quickly identify the error information in the address and make corresponding prompts to guide users to correct the error and improve the accuracy of the address information. Prevent the wrong address information into the follow-up link, for the whole logistics distribution process to the “first checkpoint”.

Three, the address is not complete, help you make up

In addition to address information filling errors, users also have a common situation is to omit the address information in the key fields. For example, administrative division information is missing, or the number of the information is missing. In the former case, the intelligent address resolution interface can automatically complete the missing administrative division information according to the destination resolution. In the latter case, the user will be prompted to complete the key information. Complete address information, for the smooth operation of logistics links to lay a good foundation.

Four, the address is messy, help you neat

The last scenario is that the user inputs a string of disorganized and difficult to identify address information, and the intelligent address resolution interface can accurately extract the key information and standardize it into a standardized address information, which increases readability and improves the efficiency of all links, such as the receipt and delivery by the Courier. As shown below:
