Examples of addressing in different countries
ISO 19160-2 specifies how to plan, implement and maintain addresses and corresponding address data in order to gain maximum benefits for governance and society in the long run. An address reference system defines a set of address components (e.g., street name, house number) and the rules for combining the components into an address. There are many different ways in which such addresses are assigned to physical objects. This page provides references to examples of how addresses from all over the world. These examples are from different contexts and for different objectives. This information is provided as a useful reference for anyone planning to implement addressing. Note that the examples do not necessarily conform to one of the parts of ISO 19160.
