In the next screen, the names of the columns are shown. If E-Maps recognizes the column name, it will suggest it. If this is not the case, there is the option to select the column. In the address column, the streetname and housenumber can be combined.

Tick the Add result column option, if you are interested in feedback about the geocoding quality.

Click Next.

The Layer Options will appear. In this menu, you can give a name to the layer and select a color type.

Select Finish.
