Part 1: Standards as the basis
for addresses
Carsten Rönsdorf, chair British Standards Institution
Committee for Geographic Information (IST/36)
Agenda
• What standards bring to the table
• British Standards Institution IST/36 committee
• Snapshots and Lifecycles
• BS7666 – high level introduction
• Other address specifications
• Data models and GML
Why standards
• Apply to actual or potential problems
• For common and repeated use
• Aimed at achievement of optimum degree of order in a given
context
• Successful standards need to be:
• wanted, usable (implemented) and used
• beneficial and impartial
• up-to-date and have wide application
• Conformance can be tested / certified
• Can provide investment security
• Contain best practise
• Often available on RAND [Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory]
terms on a royalty-free basis (excl. BSi, ISO etc)
The IST/36 committee
• Government and industry representatives and co-opted experts
• Process and transparency
• Maintains BS7666
• UK representation in to ISO and CEN committees
• ISO TC211 foundational conceptualisation of geospatial data
• CEN TC287 focussing on how to use standards
• TR15449-x: how to use OGC and ISO standards to create a
Spatial Data Infrastructure
• Profiles: specialisations of standards, i.e. to make an international
standard more relevant in a national context
• Gemini 2.1 UK metadata standard for GI, based on ISO
• ISO/CEN liaison with the Open Geospatial Consortium
Property / address life cycle
Some BS7666 principles
• Geographical scope to cover all of UK, Isle of Man and
Channel Islands
• Meet national language requirements
• Enable cross-referencing with other data
• Maintenance of relationship between streets and BLPUs
• difficult cases to be clarified
• allow for those not fitting general model
• Separate implementation guidelines available

Part 0: General model
• Provides a general model of spatial references based upon
named spatial units
• Defines the essential components of a gazetteer of geographic
locations
• Provides structure for gazetteers defined in other parts
• Based upon ISO 19112 Spatial referencing by geographic
identifiers

Role of standards in the creation of AddressBaseTM
• Different address registers with their own identifiers
• Extensive data matching exercise
• Both main input datasets contained a BS7666 structured
address
• Integration of Scottish data with current database (England and
Wales only)
• AddressBase premium implements BS7666
• European Inspire address specification (mandatory for public
sector providers of addresses) is also built on 19112: standards
facilitate mapping processes

BLPU + UPRN
Address data is heavily standards based
to provide integration and facilitate practical use.
