| DBH2 |
A Device-Based Hybrid system (typically on a
mobile device) produces a compound location that
includes a full or partial Civic Address in addition
to the Geodetic Location normally expected from
a DBH system. Distinct from RevGeo because,
even if the DBH system uses reverse-geocoding to
determine the Civic Location, the DBH system
determines and delivers the Civic Location, not a
downstream entity. |

| Derived-RevGeo |
A full or partial Civic Location, which is not
validated against an LVF, is derived by reversegeocoding a Geodetic Location. The original
Geodetic Location MUST also be delivered with
the derived Civic Location. Used when a
downstream entity other than the calling device
reverse-geocodes a Geodetic Location it received
from an upstream entity, such as location
services/DBH. |
