What is this digital address code?
The Indian government is soon going to make a digital address code for every house in India. This digital address code will act as a unique code for each household in India. The government will verify the address of every person living in the country who has his own house. And a unique code will be issued to him for his address, whose main work will be useful from online delivery to address verification of the person whom we will also be able to call our e-address.
Know who is making digital address code
The responsibility of making this code has been given by the Government of India to the Postal Department. Which is working on creating Digital Address Code (DAC). Some time back, a research paper was released by the Postal Department on its official website seeking the feedback and suggestions of all its stockholders on the proposal of digital address. By the way, the deadline for giving feedback was till November 20, which has ended. In such a situation, the government can soon make an announcement regarding the digital address.
Why is there a need for a digital address code?
Why is there the need for a digital address, the Department of Posts says that we use our Aadhar card as our address proof, but our address recorded on our Aadhar card cannot be digitally authenticated If seen, this is the shortcoming in each of our documents, to overcome this, in order to digitally authenticate any address, that address must be linked to a digital location (Geospatial Coordinates or Geospatial Coordinates). By doing this, the digital address identity will be able to use the address for online authentication.
- Difficult to reach the exact address: If seen, the way online transactions have increased as well as online shopping has also increased to a great extent, but even today it is very difficult to reach an address for delivery.
- Aadhar Card Only Address Proof: We all use Aadharcard to proof our address but we cannot digitally authenticate the address present in Aadharcard.
- Fraud from Fake Address: Fraud happens with many e-commerce customers using a fake address. If the addresses are digitally linked, then they will be able to authenticate them online, which will stop online frauds.
- Unique Code: Sometimes the address is such that it is not possible to reach. But the digital code will be unique where it can be easily accessed.
What are the characteristics of a digital address code?
- If seen, the Digital Address Code (DAC) will be unique for every address, it simply means that every person will have a residential unit or business.
- The geospatial which represents the Digital Address Code (DAC) will be combined with the coordinates. The main purpose of which would be to represent the address at the entry gate or gate.
- Geospatial coordinates of many such sensitive establishments cannot be disclosed, as well as digital address codes will not be issued or linked to ‘neighborhood’ or city coordinates.
How will the digital address code be unique for each address?
A Digital Address Code (DAC) will be your home code.
If your house is partitioned in the future So in this case you will be issued a different digital code address with a different address.
If you live in an apartment or building. So each person living in it will be allotted a separate digital address code, which will be linked to the geospatial coordinates of the entry of the apartment or building.
Any type of corporate company office or government office complex will also have digital address codes. Which will be linked to the geospatial coordinates of that building.
By the way, each property will have its own Digital Address Code (DAC). But if there are multiple parts of the property, then each shareholder will be allotted a new Digital Address Code (DAC).
How many numbers will have a digital address code?
If we believe the postal department, then the people living in India have about 35 crore houses. But if we add non-residential and business locations in this, then the number of all these addresses can be around 75 crores. Although initially it has been proposed to issue 11 digit +1 check digit i.e. total 12 digit digital address code. Apart from this, about 100 crore addresses will be covered if needed.
