Abstract
Computerized data management systems and methods for inter-relating, indexing, and organizing data records stored in a database or as computer files are described. The systems and methods can be used for linking or associating data records relating to real estate parcels. A given parcel in a community of parcels may have many neighbors. The systems and methods can identify a reduced set of neighbors of the parcel that have addresses that bracket the address of the parcel.

A method of linking real estate parcels in a database, the method comprising:
- under control of a geocoding engine comprising computer hardware:
- accessing a data repository that is configured to store parcel data for each of a plurality of real estate parcels, the parcel data associated with each real estate parcel comprising a parcel boundary;
- identifying a community of real estate parcels, at least some of the plurality of real estate parcels having spatially contiguous boundaries;
- calculating a community border for the community of real estate parcels;
- identifying a first real estate parcel in the community of real estate parcels that intersects the community border;
- determining a border intersection between the first real estate parcel and the community border;
- determining a neighboring real estate parcel in the community of real estate parcels that is within a threshold distance of the border intersection;
- linking the first real estate parcel to the neighboring real estate parcel, wherein a data record associated with the first real estate parcel is missing an address number;
- and
- matching the first real estate parcel to an address number based at least in part on an address number of the neighboring real estate parcel.
A system for of linking in a database, the system comprising:
- non-transitory data storage configured to store parcel data for each of a plurality of parcels, the parcel data associated with each parcel comprising a parcel boundary;
- and
- a computer system comprising computer hardware, the computer system in communication with the non-transitory data storage, the computer system programmed with executable instructions to:
- identify a community of parcels, at least some of the plurality of parcels having spatially contiguous boundaries;
- calculate a community border for the community of parcels;
- identify a first parcel in the community of parcels that intersects the community border:
- determine a border intersection between the first parcel and the community border;
- determine a neighboring parcel that is within a threshold distance of the border intersection;
- link the first parcel to the neighboring parcel, wherein a data record associated with the first parcel is missing an address number;
- and
- match the first parcel to an address number based at least in part on an address number of the neighboring parcel.
Non-transitory computer storage comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:
- identify a community of parcels, at least some of the plurality of parcels having spatially contiguous boundaries;
- calculate a border intersection between a first parcel in the community of parcels and a community border associated with the community of parcels;
- determine a neighboring parcel in the community of parcels that is within a threshold distance of the border intersection;
- link the first parcel to the neighboring parcel, wherein a data record associated with the first parcel is missing an address number;
- and
- match the first parcel to an address number based at least in part on an address number of the neighboring parcel.
