Use latitude and longitude to subdivide the earth's surface, the location of these units any GPS-enabled smart mobile hand phone can locate within seconds. One degree division is approximately 1.8 x 1.8 km where I am. A half degree is approximately one square kilometer.
And using the longitude/latitude numerical, you can easily develop a standard address for every location on the earth's surface, down to meter accuracy if you really need to.
