|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Address search | Municipal extension of the address search for counties and associations based on a WFS-G according to AdV-DOG profile | The current interfaces for the address search are either insufficient for counties, including municipalities or associations with many municipalities, or do not provide up-to-date data (if available). For the present extension, the following cases are taken into consideration: 1) Uniqueness of the street name, even in the event of multiple occurrences of a street in a county or association, by specifying the name of the municipalities and the postal code (the street names are unique only per municipality, the street name may therefore occur several times in a county or association). 2) Insofar as address data and land parcel data are available on a daily basis, they can be requested on a daily basis via the search. 3) Display all street addresses of a street directly at the results display “Display street names.” |
