ThinkGeo.MapSuite.MapSuiteGeocoder.SoundexDbfMatchingPlugin

This class implements soundex matching operations. There are two columns in the DBF file that are necessary for soundex matching. The first is the soundex value generated by certain Soundex algorithms (by default this is implemented by SimplifiedSoundex). The second is the exact value.

MatchCore(String)

• This method matches source text in corresponding index files. This function tries to get all MatchItems by using binary searching in MatchDbf, but there could be many inaccurate results returned because of Soundex. Thus, it loops through each MatchItem, calculates the ditance between the result and the source according to the Levenshteins algorithm, then finds the result with the shortest distance.
