MapPointNAICS.NA Data Source

Point-of-interest data for the United States (excluing Alaska), Canada, and Puerto Rico.

Remarks

With the MapPointNAICS.NA data source, you can find businesses that are based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) standard. The NAICS was developed jointly by the United States, Canadian, and Mexican governments to provide a common classification scheme for businesses throughout North America.

The MapPointNAICS.NA data source will replace the Acxiom data sources. The Acxiom data sources are to be deprecated. Although the Acxiom data sources will remain available through MapPoint Web Service for some time, we recommend that you start using the new MapPointNAICS.NA data source for point-of-interest data in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico.

Entity Types

Entity type names in the MapPointNAICS.NA data source match the 2002 NAICS codes. The following table describes entities that represent high-level categories defined by the NAICS. Each entity has many subentities that you can use to refine your searches. For example, entity NAICS51 translates to Information and includes a subentity that is named NAICS518. NAISCS518 translates to Internet Service Providers, Web Search Portals, and Data Processing Services. If you only want to return Internet Service Providers in your query, use entity NAICS518 instead of the larger grouping of NAICS51.
