Reltio Address Standardization: Keyword Reference Guide

Question

What standardized words are available for the address cleanser supported by Reltio?

Answer

Reltio’s Address Cleanser leverages standardized keywords to transform and normalize address data during the cleansing process. These standardized words ensure that diverse and often inconsistent address formats are translated into a consistent structure for better match, merge, and analytics performance.

The address cleanser supports a comprehensive set of standardized keywords, including but not limited to:

  • Directional Indicators (e.g., "N" for "North", "SW" for "Southwest")
  • Street Suffixes (e.g., "St" standardized to "Street", "Ave" to "Avenue")
  • Unit Designators (e.g., "Apt", "Suite", "Unit")
  • Building Identifiers (e.g., "Bldg", "Tower", "Block")
  • Locality Types (e.g., "City", "Town", "Village")
  • Country-specific Keywords – Distinct standardized terms are applied for different geographies (US vs. non-US)

These standardized words vary based on country-specific rules and data quality standards. Reltio provides reference lists for both U.S. and non-U.S. address formats. Please  search the below titles.
