Multimap Implementation Guidelines - GeoQuality Codes
Records can be geocoded into coordinates with varying precision depending on how accurate and complete the address data is. For each record, the geocoding precision is indicated by one of these GeoQuality codes.
For example, where the town and street name have been matched, but the postal code has not been recognized, the GeoQuality code is "2c".

The GeoQuality code may be used to check the validity of the coordinates that Multimap has assigned to your addresses.
If the code indicates that it has not been possible to match all address elements successfully,
it is important to check that the location is correct on a map.
