MyAddress
A geospatial app that helps users create a unique address anywhere in the world.
A geospatial app designed to enable users to generate unique, reliable, and consistent addresses anywhere globally.
Challenge
Creating accurate and reliable addressing systems presents several challenges:
- Many regions lack the necessary infrastructure to establish and maintain accurate addresses
- Standardized addresses do not exist across geopolitical borders, leading to inconsistencies
- City names and administrative boundaries often change, making it challenging to maintain up-to-date address databases
Solution
To address these issues, I developed a geospatial application, “MyAddress,” providing users with the ability to generate unique digital addresses and easily search and manage them through intuitive integrations.
Key Features
Unique Digital Address
- Standardized Format:
XX-XXX-XXXXXXXX
API
- Simple API endpoints to generate new unique addresses
- Effortless address lookup and management through API
Technical Implementation
The application leverages the following technologies:
- PostGIS + H3: Efficient storage, indexing, and retrieval of geospatial address data
- FastAPI: Robust, performant, and scalable backend API
- HTMX + Tailwinds CSS: Responsive, interactive frontend providing a seamless user experience
