What3Words

what3words is a simple way to talk about precise location. We have divided the world into 3 metre squares and assigned each one a unique combination of 3 words - a what3words address. This means that anywhere in the world can be found using 3 easy-to-remember and easy-to-share dictionary words.

The free what3words app and map-site are used by millions of people, businesses, governments, charities and NGOs around the world to improve efficiencies, enhance customer experience and keep people safe. Our core technology (Public API and offline SDKs) is built into geographic information systems, car sat-navs, navigation apps and command and control software. Checkout pages accept what3words addresses for customer deliveries and hotels, travel guides and businesses provide their what3words address on contact pages and booking confirmations to help visitors find them more easily. Importantly, >80% of UK emergency services use what3words to help them locate and respond to 999 incidents.

Mix of civic tech and travel & tourism. We plan to use location data for citizen logging of issues via an app - this could be potholes, beach litter, overcrowding, pinchpoints etc which we route to relevant parties such as park authorities, local authorities etc. The overall platform facilitates public - private stakeholder and community engagement and consensus through various tools, including a forum, an innovation tool, project management, jobs and training board and more. Everything is evidence led and with a goal of social, economic and environmental sustainability.
