The Actor resolves free-text Dutch addresses against the national BAG register (Basisregistratie Adressen en Gebouwen) through PDOK. The row has resolved, match_quality and match_score, the normalized address with postcode, the building block with construction year, use and floor area, coordinates, bag_ids and a source_url to the BAG record.
