Dear Support Team,
Some 3 years ago, in my following mail, I asked:
“ How can What3Words be used for giving location-addresses to flats / apartments in multistoried buildings ? “
In this context , following news report offers an opportunity for your company to offer a solution to the Indian Census Authorities , which will soon launch a Mobile App to carry out “ houselisting “ of 290 million homes/households in India :
Self-enumeration by public in next Census not limited to 2nd phase alone
“ Self-enumeration for the houselisting phase will allow residents to enter details like housing conditions, housing amenities, and assets possessed online through the Census App or Central monitoring and Management System ( CMMS ) portal “

I believe , integrating your upcoming HINDI version of What3Words , could be an ideal solution for both , UBER and Bombay Municipal Corporation

| Chloe Day (what3words Support) Feb 20, 15:18 GMT 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

| hemen parekh Feb 20, 06:05 GMT 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 ?
