After analyzing Chinese address model,this paper built a standard address database and an address matching rules database,and then presented a rule-based Geocoding method for fuzzy Chinese addresses.This method used the standard address database to segment the input fuzzy Chinese address.At the same time,the method used the rules database to reduce and find a standard address that matched with that fuzzy address.The method used the customized rules to reduce candidate addresses so that it can participate in match reduction and save the matching executive time.In addition,the introduction of rule tree and semantic stacks also promote the matching of fuzzy address.Finally,a Geocoding prototype system was built,and then its availability was verified utilizing the data of natural economic census project.
