This article walks through an approach to convert an unstructured address into a structured (or hybrid) address complying with the ISO 20022 PostalAddress24 (CBPR+) ready for November 2026. The code to do this is available in the Github repository. It is a python project using Libpostal. If you need support installing and configuring Libpostal and the Senzing model on Windows, see this article.
Libpostal may be a prerequisite for parsing addresses as part of an ISO 20022 Structured Address solution. This article explains how to install and configure it in your development or production environment. If this is Windows, you can either use a containerised solution or use WSL. This article provides instructions for the WSL option.
