Next wizard step of setting geocoding by features is setting parameters of geocoded features and saving settings file (figure 77-12).
Figure 77-12. Geocoding wizard, page “Setting parameters”
Setting parameters of point features was described in the subsection “Setting geocoding by coordinates”.
When setting geocoding by features the user can also specify the value of parameter Radius on the nested page “Random Deviation”. This parameter specifies the radius of the circle within which coordinates of geocoded features can be deviated from their calculated coordinates. The meaning of introducing random scattering of features is that otherwise some geocoded features linked with one and the same feature of the searching type (for example, several clients having one and the same address) will be located by the same coordinates and their symbols will overlap each other. If the user does not want to do this at the expense of precision, he can specify zero value of deviation. It is especially justified if there are grounds to think that not more than one feature of geocoded type can exist for any feature of the searching type.
