The US Street Address Location Category

Autodesk MapGuide Author comes with a predefined location category
called "US Street Address." When you activate this category, you access a
geocoding database that contains U.S. street addresses and their coordinates,
so that your users can type an address or ZIP code and zoom directly to that
location on the map.
To use this feature, you must have a U.S. street address geocoding database
licensed to Autodesk MapGuide Server. For more information, see 150.
To see an example of how to set up the US Street Address location category,
choose Help Contents, click the Index tab, and look up "Zoom Goto loca-

tion categories, US Street Address."
