Everything Location - Address Report Fields: AQI

The Address Quality Index (AQI) is used to indicate the quality of an address, e.g., Excellent quality, Good quality, Average quality, Poor quality, and Bad quality. Any record that is able to be parsed will have an AQI.

The AQI is derived from the AVC, using the following table:

AQI Address Quality Explanation Verification level Matchscore
A Excellent Verifiable to at least Premise level without changes >=4 100
B Good Verifiable to at least Thoroughfare level with minor changes >=3 >=95
C Average Verifiable to at least Locality level with moderate changes >=2 >=90
D Poor Only verifiable to at least Locality level with more than moderate changes >=2 >=80
E Bad   else else

Example: Excellent Quality

{
   "Address1":"999 Baker Way, San Mateo, CA, 94404, US"
}​

The address is verified to the Premise level without changes. From the output below, we can see the post-processed verification match level is 4, and the Matchscore is 100, the Address Quality Index is A.
