Spanish Real State IDs

Introduction

The function clean_es_referenciacatastral() cleans a column containing Spanish real state id (Referenciacatastral) strings, and standardizes them in a given format. The function validate_es_referenciacatastral() validates either a single Referenciacatastral strings, a column of Referenciacatastral strings or a DataFrame of Referenciacatastral strings, returning True if the value is valid, and False otherwise.

Referenciacatastral strings can be converted to the following formats via the output_format parameter:

  • compact: only number strings without any seperators or whitespace, like “4A08169P03PRAT0001LR”

  • standard: Referenciacatastral strings with proper whitespace in the proper places, like “4A08169 P03PRAT 0001 LR”

Invalid parsing is handled with the errors parameter:

  • coerce (default): invalid parsing will be set to NaN

  • ignore: invalid parsing will return the input

  • raise: invalid parsing will raise an exception

The following sections demonstrate the functionality of clean_es_referenciacatastral() and validate_es_referenciacatastral().

An example dataset containing Referenciacatastral strings

[1]:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "referenciacatastral": [
            "4A08169P03PRAT0001LR",
            "7837301/VG8173B 0001 TT",
            "51824753556",
            "51 824 753 556",
            "hello",
            np.nan,
            "NULL"
        ],
        "address": [
            "123 Pine Ave.",
            "main st",
            "1234 west main heights 57033",
            "apt 1 789 s maple rd manhattan",
            "robie house, 789 north main street",
            "(staples center) 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles",
            "hello",
        ]
    }
)
df
[1]:
referenciacatastral address
0 4A08169P03PRAT0001LR 123 Pine Ave.

1. Default clean_es_referenciacatastral

By default, clean_es_referenciacatastral will clean referenciacatastral strings and output them in the standard format with proper separators.

[2]:
from dataprep.clean import clean_es_referenciacatastral
clean_es_referenciacatastral(df, column = "referenciacatastral")
[2]:
referenciacatastral address referenciacatastral_clean
0 4A08169P03PRAT0001LR 123 Pine Ave. 4A08169 P03PRAT 0001 LR
1 7837301/VG8173B 0001 TT main st NaN
2 51824753556 1234 west main heights 57033 NaN
3 51 824 753 556 apt 1 789 s maple rd manhattan NaN
4 hello robie house, 789 north main street NaN
5 NaN (staples center) 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles NaN
6 NULL hello NaN

2. Output formats

This section demonstrates the output parameter.

standard (default)

[3]:
clean_es_referenciacatastral(df, column = "referenciacatastral", output_format="standard")
[3]:
referenciacatastral address referenciacatastral_clean
0 4A08169P03PRAT0001LR 123 Pine Ave. 4A08169 P03PRAT 0001 LR
1 7837301/VG8173B 0001 TT main st NaN
2 51824753556 1234 west main heights 57033 NaN
3 51 824 753 556 apt 1 789 s maple rd manhattan NaN
4 hello robie house, 789 north main street NaN
5 NaN (staples center) 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles NaN
6 NULL hello NaN

compact

[4]:
clean_es_referenciacatastral(df, column = "referenciacatastral", output_format="compact")
[4]:
referenciacatastral address referenciacatastral_clean
0 4A08169P03PRAT0001LR 123 Pine Ave. 4A08169P03PRAT0001LR

[5]:
referenciacatastral_clean address

4. validate_es_referenciacatastral()

validate_es_referenciacatastral() returns True when the input is a valid Referenciacatastral. Otherwise it returns False.

The input of validate_es_referenciacatastral() can be a string, a Pandas DataSeries, a Dask DataSeries, a Pandas DataFrame and a dask DataFrame.

When the input is a string, a Pandas DataSeries or a Dask DataSeries, user doesn’t need to specify a column name to be validated.

When the input is a Pandas DataFrame or a dask DataFrame, user can both specify or not specify a column name to be validated. If user specify the column name, validate_es_referenciacatastral() only returns the validation result for the specified column. If user doesn’t specify the column name, validate_es_referenciacatastral() returns the validation result for the whole DataFrame.
