what3words

Co-founded in London in 2013 by Chris Sheldrick, What3Words is the simplest way to talk about location. The system covers the entire world, never needs updating, and works offline. A 3-word address is a human-friendly way to share very precise locations with other people or to input them into platforms and machines such as autonomous cars or e-commerce checkouts. It is optimized for voice input and contains built-in error prevention to immediately identify and correct input mistakes. The free What3Words app, available foriOS andAndroid, and the online map enable people to find, share and navigate to 3-word addresses in 37 languages to date.
