There is a mapping project going on that is giving every 3x3 meter square in the world a name. Now, where ever you are, you will have an address even if that place has no address.

Say you are at a bus stop, or maybe in your hunting blind, or perhaps shooting out in the desert. Now, whatever 100 square foot piece of land you are standing on will have an address.

use.this.link

what3words is a universal addressing system based on a 3mx3m global grid.

Each of the 57 trillion 3mx3m squares in the world has been pre-allocated a fixed & unique 3 word address.

Our geocoder turns geographic coordinates into these 3 word addresses & vice-versa.

As it is an algorithm our solution takes up less than 10MB, small enough to install on almost all smartphones and works across platforms and devices.

what3words is a plug-in for businesses and individuals, via an API, to enhance their own products and services with simple and precise addressing.
