6. New Age/GIS Addressing
Recommended attributes for New Age/GIS Addressing Code System
The geo coordinate anchor must represent an area no more than 4 square metres
Each anchor should represent a similar area
The address system must be freely available to all citizens and businesses
Should have some form of location recognisability
Should be structured in a way to make it logical for door to door delivery
It should be structured so that the code appears as the first line of the address to avoid system changes in posts, government and business logistical systems and databases

The cost of this addressing of dwellings is between €1.50 and €2.50 per dwelling. The average number of people living in one of these dwellings is 6. Therefore the cost per person is less than 50c. The rate at which addresses can be supplied is 50 dwellings per man day. While is important to make sure in advance that no authority would object and that there is support from the local community, as we are paying for everything, there is no need to for government or post resources to be employed in this addressing work. And there is no reason for any system changes – only improvements – why? Because the unique identifier for this address sits in the address block where the house name or business name would normally sit in any address system in the world. In India it looks like this:
Mr Bill Gates
NM4C1XA7N
114 Chetla Lock Gate,
Near Hope Community Center,
Chetla
Kolkata
INDIA
Where NM4C1XA7N is the unique identifier and the rest of the address is what the dweller used to use before the unique identifier was introduced, but which actually represents (and is shared by) over 200 different dwellings. This positioning of the unique identifier does not affect postal sorting systems, but aids the delivery person to identify the exact dwelling.
