This dataset is a geocoded version of **[file of polling stations published by INSEE](https://www.insee.fr/fr/information/3539086)**.
It was geocoded using:
— the National Address Base (February 2020)
— the BANO of OpenStreetMap France (February 2020)
— points of interest extracted from OpenStreetMap
ATTENTION: Geocoding is an imperfect process that cannot always locate a polling station, their addresses are not standardised and sometimes very imprecise.
Of the 70,000 offices of the original file, 60000 could be geocoded more or less precisely during a **first geocoding**.
The geo_type column indicates the geographical accuracy:
— housenumber: accuracy at address
— interpolation: position interpolated between 2 addresses
— street: position “on the street”
— locality: position “instead said”
— municipality: position “to the municipality”
— POI: position related to a point of interest (may, school, etc.)
geo_score: indicates the match rate of the initial wording sought and the one found, the higher it is, the more likely the address is to be the correct one.
