Hello all,
I don't know a lot about this, but apparently there is a
current effort in the U.S. to improve the addressing in rural areas so
emergency responders can locate addresses more easily. It might be
advantageous to look at their addressing scheme to see if there is
something we can use. It also could be advantageous to be congruent
with that scheme, if it works for us.
Also, this effort could be a source of address data in the
future.
Does anyone have more detail?
i would imagine there is a regional/local component to this. the 911
numbering i've seen
in central iowa is already tuned to provide pretty efficient
specification of addresses. what
they need are better routing solutions.
my emergency response project may move to rural NY volunteer districts
more rapidly
than i expected. if i learn anything about that, i'll report it here.
