Dear
Hemen,
Most postal or address systems only work in 2D (e.g. ZIP codes or postal
codes in the UK). These always need additional information to specify
height: e.g. Flat 6, 5th floor, 12 Lonsdale Road. With a 3 word address, we
recommend a similar approach, e.g. Flat 6, 5th floor, index.home.raft In
terms of indoor addressing, what3words covers all locations in 2D, but the
supporting technology (indoor positioning, indoor mapping, indoor
navigation) is not yet widespread enough for there to be any great benefit
of specifying a point with height included. However, if and when height
becomes helpful to specify, we have various options for including this
information with the 3 word address.
Thank you for the information on India's search for an addressing solution
- I'll pass it on to our sales team.
All best wishes,
Chloe

Dear Chloe,
Many thanks for your prompt response
Here is a question :
As far as I can make out , your
system is two-dimensional ( surface area based )
How can it be improvised to track /
locate properties located 1000 ft above the ground level , in a
multi-storied building ? ( 3 dimensions )
On each floor of a residential or
commercial building , there are apartments / offices , belonging to
different owners
Local governments ( eg; Municipal
Corporations of towns / cities ) , do assign / allot an ID ( alpha-numeric
digit number ) to such properties to keep track and collect property taxes
. This results in a large number of local databases , each differently
designed / accessed . Quite often, these are paper-based !
But there is no CENTRAL / COMMON
DATABASE of all the properties ( not merely land parcels ) in a country,
which can be accessed by different government agencies from any city
At least in India , this ( lack of a
CENTRAL / COMMON DATABASE of apartments – offices etc ) has become a BIG
issue since billions of dollars’ worth of properties are purchased with
BLACK MONEY , in the names of non-existent persons !
Indian Government is looking for a
solution where each and every property is given a UNIQUE ID and also linked
with Unique “ Aadhar Numbers (https://uidai.gov.in/) “ already issued to over 1200
MILLION persons over the past 4 years
Do you think your system could
provide a fool-proof solution ?
In this connection , you might want
