Experimentation with the URL query params indicates that the request requires the full set of params, including the redundant state and city in the URL.

The address details are also required to be standardized before submitting, otherwise the default results for the /local/state/city are returned regardless of the specific query parameters. This means the scraping process will need to validate/process the address string in some way.... Hopefully the same way the request to OpenStreetMaps is made by the Map visualization.
