Amazon wants to deliver , no matter whether you are on
top of a mountain , middle of a dense jungle or living in deserts of
Kutchh !
Here is proof ( of its intention ) :
Extract :
Amazon India is
now looking to strengthen its logistics capabilities with
geo-tagging and new age technologies like artificial intelligence and machine learning
Reportedly, the
company is trying to map
the entire country through geo-tags to create efficiencies in its
delivery network. It is further working on a technology to get around the
challenge of unstructured addresses in the country.
With the help of AI and
ML, Amazon will extract different entities related to an
address such as flat number,
building number, building name, street name, the locality, the city, etc.
Based on the entry by
the customer, the
address is given a score of high or low in case critical inputs are missing. The customer is
then prompted to help with more information.
Context :
Here is what I wrote to www.What3words.com , on 22 April 2018 :
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 to look up :

Nami
or Benami ? Why Differentiate ?

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 what3words support |
I would not be surprised if Amazon offers to buy out What3Words , considering what Chloe
wrote to me ( below ) :

Dear Hemen,
Thank you for passing this on! We are working on several more Indian languages at the moment. Hopefully they will all help with adoption in India.
