% 3 word addresses from what3words are an
alternative addressing system for multilin‐
gual georeferencing of global locations with
a resolution of three metres. Using this grid,
locations on the Earth's surface are included
which do not have a building address such
as street and house number, for example.

lowing language dependent 3 word address,
for example:
German: tapfer.gebäude.verliehen
R
English: that.lands.winning

cations.
