The director general of the Post of Côte d’Ivoire, Isaac Gnamba-Yao, will finalize today in Paris, on the sidelines of the VivaTech exhibition that opens its doors, an important partnership for the effective start of the project of inclusive distribution of postal parcels via digital addresses.
It is an innovative project, operated in partnership with Qwant, Be-Bound, What3Words, BNP Digital and Innova Côte d’Ivoire, which will allow to assign a unique digital address to each piece of land in the Ivorian territory. to directly deliver to specific locations.
Initiated by the British firm What3Words, this system associates with each space of 3m x 3 m of the globe a unique address of 3 words that makes possible the precise location of any place on the Earth’s surface.
In practice, through an application, it will become possible to identify an address corresponding to a given geographical indication, for example “glitter.drummers.stepping”, to write it on a parcel that the postal services will then be in charge of conveying. to the recipient’s door.
