Fundamental Importance of Geocoded Address Geocoded Address Business Location Information Information Information Information It is the Key to Geospatial Enabling Business Information

Address Complexity • Address is derived from human language – Influenced by human psychology • reasoning, intuition and perception • context specific • Place is important in human cognition and • Place is important in human cognition and communication – Consequently, a high priority for human computer interaction – Forces consideration of conceptual modelling.

Address Complexity • Address is a dynamic concept – Rate of change is very high as there are many components that make up an address components that make up an address • Address is not easily discoverable – Complex sites lead to confusion and – Complex sites lead to confusion and inconsistency – Leads to individuals ‘constructing’ address with – Leads to individuals ‘constructing’ address with the knowledge that is available – Creates ‘alternate’ and ‘alias’ addresses that are used but not official or not accurate are used but not official or not accurate

G-NAF • • PSMA Australia PSMA Australia – Joint initiative of all governments, operating since 1992 – National infrastructure to deliver a single point of truth – National infrastructure to deliver a single point of truth and reduce inefficiencies • G-NAF – Geocoded National Address File – Geocoded National Address File – Broad Participation • All land administration agencies (6 States & 2 territories) • Australian Electoral Commission (Electoral Roll) • Australian Electoral Commission (Electoral Roll) • Australia Post – 13 million geocoded addresses – Quarterly updates – Quarterly updates – Dedicated to providing an authoritative national reference

G-NAF Composition • Address coverage is closely aligned with closely aligned with State / Territory core business (90% of Total) requirements requirements • Highly regarded 12% custodians 11% 11% 4 % 4% consistently consistently contain about 63% 80% of all 10% 5% Australian Australian addresses addresses Australia Post 4% Electoral Commission (88% of Total) (76% of Total) • Greatest result achieved achieved through aggregation

Improving G-NAF: Accuracy Accuracy • Feedback and issue investigation – Improvements in source data – Use of rules by PSMA Australia • Improvements – Reducing address duplication – Reducing address duplication – Geocode improvement – Expanding address types – Expanding address types • Features of Interest dataset

G-NAF Live • Demand for more accuracy and greater frequency is growing with market maturity • Traditional data delivery cannot keep pace with • Traditional data delivery cannot keep pace with greater rates of maintenance. • A web-service based approach is the only path • A web-service based approach is the only path • PSMA has established highly flexible work- flows and web-service delivery options. • Address updates are now available as often as updates are provided by custodians, in some cases every 24 hours. cases every 24 hours.
