Geocoding deep dive: Tips & power features
summary
Mapbox Geocoding now offers unit-level geocoding (US only) and routable points in responses, with the playground demo returning four feature candidates and routable coordinates per hit. The pipeline adds an ML pipeline: a spell-correction model (fixes typos like extra letters), an annotation model that tags tokens (unit, POI, postcode), and an ML-powered ranker trained on selection telemetry that surfaces rooftop/secondary addresses correctly. Also supports batch geocoding up to 1000 queries per request and permanent versus temporary endpoints for cached vs live use.
