Claim One:
1. In an automated computer geocoding system having a plurality of geographic datasets stored in a computer memory, wherein the geographic datasets include at least one point level dataset, at least one street level dataset, and at least one geographic level dataset, a method for providing geocoded data with positional accuracy indicators, the method including: receiving an address to be geocoded; determining whether corresponding geocode data for the address exists in one or more of the geographic datasets; selecting the geographic dataset that provides a highest level of resolution and that also includes corresponding geocode data for the address; outputting a geocoded coordinate for the address as found in the geographic dataset that was selected; calculating an offset value for the geocoded coordinate that is output, wherein the offset value is determined as a function of geographic characteristics of the geographic dataset that was selected; and outputting the offset value for the geocoded coordinate that was output.
