The issue with lat/long isn't just that it's inconvenient, but it doesn't map to high density structures. A resident of 432 Park Avenue, the tallest residential building in the world with 96 stories, would share a lat/long with 95 other people.
- dagw 8y agoSimple fix. Just include altitude :)
- Double_a_92 8y agoThe same applies to just "432 Park Avenue" as well.

- pbhjpbhj 8y agoAssuming the building is bound on all sides by roads then delivery drivers will need to know on which of those roads to gain access. Why not name the roads, then you can say the road name. Also, when sorting mail looking up lat-long for every item is tedious, so we could name the address by the town/city name that it is local too. Now lat-long is getting to be redundant ...
