Abstract
 The Development of a Master Address Repository for Washington, DC Track: Cadastral and Land Records Author(s): David Jackson, Vivek Srivastav A comprehensive address database has a broad range of uses in the efficient delivery of government services. Constructing a Master Address Repository (MAR) for the city of Washington, D.C., was a time-consuming, complex, and challenging task. The repository now has more than 133,000 unique, valid addresses assembled and researched from more than 20 unique sources. Along with building the repository, comprehensive methods and testing procedures are utilized to check and maintain the MAR's integrity and accuracy. MAR has more than just the address information. It contains various critical geographies such as Ward and Police District, the location of the address, as well as attribution that links back to the District's Street Spatial Database (SSD).
