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.

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 ) :
