OGC Address Standard

The OGC Address Standard is a set of guidelines developed by the Open Geospatial Consortium to ensure consistency and interoperability when sharing address information across different systems and organizations. It provides a common format and structure for addresses, including components like street, city, postal code, and country. This helps improve the accuracy, clarity, and usefulness of address data, making it easier to locate places, facilitate deliveries, and enhance geographic information systems (GIS) worldwide. Essentially, it promotes a standardized way to manage address data for better communication and data exchange.
