We believe that everyone should have a definitive address enabling them to easily locate loved ones, and have access to services like emergency response, e-commerce and deliveries, no matter where they live.
This is the inspiration behind SnooCODE.
How does it work?
A SnooCODE is a 6- or 7-digit alphanumeric code that acts like a UK postcode or a US Zip Code, except over 200 times more precise. A SnooCODE like COF-K8D can locate a house to within less than 7 metres, useful for public service purposes like Water and Sanitation Health management, contact tracing, utility and infrastructure monitoring, as well as for commercial service delivery.
AND after getting an address,
what next?
How will the delivery person get to all 20 different locations on time?
Is there a way to make sure he or she actually made it to the appointed destination?
And what happens if there is a reported disaster at a particular site?
Can a drone be flown to survey the area for disaster management?
These are questions SnooCODE provides answers to, with its suite of functions that take you beyond locating anyone or anything.
