Address Matching Process

Addresses in this report are categorised by whether they could be matched to a Geocoded National Address File (G-NAF) identifier.

G-NAF matched addresses are addresses provided by Short Stay Accommodation providers that were successfully matched to an address record in G-NAF. This enables more reliable geographic reporting (for example, assigning addresses to Local Government Areas using standardised geocoding).

Some provider-supplied addresses are incomplete or of insufficient quality to match to G-NAF. In these cases, we use the postcode provided to assign the address to a Local Government Area.

Categorising Premise Information

In cases where an address had multiple records with conflicting permit status or residence type classifications, we applied a mode-based rule: for each address, the most frequently occurring category was used for each attribute.
