Optimise your address data to the British Standard
and maintain it from a secure, central address management
solution for universal access, consistency and data connectivity.

Any commercial organisation reliant on up-to-date address data faces significant challenges when it comes to maintaining address accuracy and consistency:

2.7M address changes in Great Britain every six weeks.

Lack of a central address management solution means no single source of truthful addresses.

Manual address data entry across disparate datasets is inefficient, error-prone and subject to duplication.

Poor address data costs time, money and ineffective service delivery.

High risk of data inconsistency, inefficiency and poor insight when disparate datasets cannot be linked via Unique Property Reference Numbers (UPRN).

Challenges of integrating with third party systems without a central source of accurate address data.

Idox’s consultative approach to address management

We are experts in address management and will work with you to identify your specific addressing needs. Based on your data inaccuracies and business requirements, we will tailor an address management solution that is right for you, providing a central source of accurate addresses complete with Unique Property Reference Numbers (UPRNs), geographic coordinates and a wealth of other classifications.

How Idox’s Address Data Solutions can help you:

This is how our utility customers are using our address management solutions

Transformative address management

Hosted in the cloud, our Address Management System (AMS) delivers the Ordnance Survey’s most comprehensive address dataset, AddressBase Premium (ABP), complete with UPRNs. Managed by Idox, the automated ABP updates and solution upgrades save time and resources. Plus, you can add any local/temporary addresses that do not appear in AddressBase Premium, allocating official UPRNs as their address anchors. Our AMS integrates seamlessly with third-party systems so only the most accurate address data is being used across the organisation.

Transformative address management
Robust address-search APIs for accurate, consistent address lookups across the entire organisation

Searching addresses

Quick, accurate, predictive searches of the AMS are enabled by our RESTful Address Search API, including Pattern Search and Radial Search methods.

Matching and cleansing addresses

Match disparate datasets to the AMS to cleanse and reformat data to the British Standard complete with UPRNs, ensuring accuracy and enabling inter-connectivity. Our matching tools have been used for large scale projects such as the Central Switching Service (energy), Cadent Gas and numerous large and complex police services.

Cleanse your address data by matching against AddressBase Premium or your LLPG to deliver exceptional accuracy at unparalleled speed
Going beyond address management

Going beyond address management

Using a central AMS to manage up-to-date AddressBase Premium and locally added address data, not only drives efficiency and consistency, it enables complex location analysis by linking disparate datasets via the UPRNs.

Plus, you can enhance your AMS data by linking location intelligence, such as utility meter IDs or perils risk data, enabling you to organise and share your location and spatial data from the one single source.
