Correct formatting and missing details. See an address typed with no care for format or detail? Instead of letting it pass through broken, DataTools Human Touch™ steps in. Like magic, the address is re-formatted, misspellings repaired, and missing details are now filled in.

Advanced address handling. Not all addresses are just street, suburb, and postcode. DataTools Human Touch™ understands complex details — from units, levels, and floors to lots, sites, ranges, and hyphenation. It recognises how these interact with streets, localities, and numbering systems.

Vanity Suburbs. Swapping a suburb for a more “prestigious” one sounds harmless, until customer address return invalid. DataTools Human Touch™ spots these vanity suburbs, and correctly fixes them to the official suburb of the address.
quality dataset
Multiple verified sources. When it comes to verifying addresses, the quality of your results depends on the quality of the reference sources used – and even though some come close, no single data source can give you complete address coverage. Our OptiSource System™ sources the best datasets available from multiple suppliers in one system to give you the very best, utmost accurate results.
quality dataset 1
Australia & New Zealand Data. In Australia, DataTools has two primary data sources: the Postal Address File (PAF) and the Geocoded National Address File (GNAF). In New Zealand, there are three main sources: the Postal Address File (PAF), the New Zealand Address Dataset (NZAD), and the Land Information New Zealand database (LINZ).
quality dataset 2
International data. DataTools partners with the leading data quality organisations in specific countries to deliver address verification for more than 245 countries and territories.

Individual field corrections. Others might reject an address as unfixable when key parts are missing — we don’t. With DataTools Seltaris, even if all you have is a suburb and the rest is incomplete or incorrect, we still validate and correct what’s there. Every field is processed, errors are cleaned, and details are standardised to match your verified records. The result? The highest quality version of that address, ready for future updates.

Standardisation on invalid entries. We always look for ways to go the extra step. Even if an address is marked as invalid, DataTools Human Touch™ refines every part it can — correcting errors and standardising details upfront. That way, even when an address can’t be fully fixed, the parts you do have are already accurate, structured, and ready for correction when further information arrives.

verified address codes

Verified (V) address codes. These represent the addresses that DataTools Seltaris has successfully confirmed as valid.

Codes V2–V4 show the progressive refinements applied, ensuring each address is fully standardised, accurate, and aligned with postal standards.

unverified address codes

Unverified (U) address codes. These addresses could not be fully confirmed as valid, but they were still processed with partial corrections, structural adjustments, and formatting improvements.

Codes U2–U5 show the enhancements applied to unverified data. These improvements ensure that if additional information becomes available in the future, each address has the best possible chance of being validated.

data accuracy

Data accuracy codes. In addition to Refinement Codes, DataTools Seltaris also appends Data Accuracy Codes to each address. These Data Accuracy Codes are useful
because they indicate the level of precision at which
each address has been matched and validated
during processing.

Understanding the accuracy level helps assess the reliability and usability of each address for business operations, logistics, or compliance.
