A system for linking common address identifiers, such as street addresses, with standard geographic coordinates so as to locate the address identified and display it on a map. The system includes a searching mechanism in which information culled from address databases is set in a hierarchy of data"tiles" from which such information can be retrieved. Pursuant to either a zip code address input by a system user, or a map view presented on a computer screen, a tile set is selected and analyzed for inclusion of an address identifier input by the system user. An address or addresses selected from the tile set are analyzed for likelihood of matching the address input by the user, and then compared with the original zip code or screen view to confirm inclusion. The address selected as being the most likely match is displayed on the computerized map. In the alternative, the user may select from a listing of likely matches an address to be highlighted on the map. The system is storable on one or more mass storage devices including, but not limited to an optically- readable CD-ROM.
