Sales-and-use tax vendor Avalara has released its latest version of AvaTax. The new edition gives customers access to the Geo-Location Engine, which determines the exact location within a sales tax jurisdiction.  To determine applicable taxes for a location, the tool utilizes latitude and longitude coordinates passed into a mapping engine that includes more than 11,000 taxing jurisdictions. The technology also supports cases where an address is not available, such as construction sites, or where an address has not yet been established.
