Introduction

This scraper processes batches of raw address strings and converts them into structured objects that are easy to store, search, or enrich. It helps anyone dealing with large lists of addresses that need to be standardized or validated.

Why Structured Address Data Matters

• Reduces errors in downstream systems.
• Makes location-based analysis cleaner and more reliable.
• Simplifies data imports into CRMs, databases, or logistics tools.
• Helps normalize user-generated content with very inconsistent formatting.
• Supports large batch processing without manual cleanup.

FAQs

Does it work with international addresses? It can parse many global formats, but accuracy varies based on how structured the text is. Highly unconventional formats may require post-processing.

What happens if an address is incomplete? The parser extracts whatever components it can and returns partial but structured data rather than failing outright.

How large can a batch be? Batch size is configurable. Performance remains stable for moderate to large lists, though extremely large datasets should be processed in chunks.

Will the parser always return correct real-world locations? Because parsing is NLP-based, outputs may occasionally deviate from actual geography. It focuses on structured breakdown, not validation.
