The Department of Posts is advancing an initiative to establish a standardized, geo-coded addressing system in India, for ensuring simplified addressing solutions for citizen-centric delivery of public and private services. In this regard, the Department had collaborated with IIT Hyderabad for developing a National Addressing Grid, named as Digital Postal Index Number (DIGIPIN). This system will act as a strong and robust pillar of Geospatial Governance, leading to enhancements in public service delivery, faster emergency response and a significant boost to logistics efficiency.

The DIGIPIN layer will act as the addressing reference system which can be used for logically locating addresses with directional properties built into it due to the logical naming pattern followed in its construction.

The DIGIPIN is proposed to be fully available in the public domain and can be easily accessed by everyone. The DIGIPIN Grid system being an addressing referencing system, can be used as the base layer for other ecosystems, including various service providers and utilities, where addressing is one of the processes in the workflow.

This system will act as a strong and robust pillar of Geospatial Governance, leading to enhancements in public service delivery, faster emergency response and a significant boost to logistics efficiency.

The advent of DIGIPIN will mark a revolutionary step in India’s journey towards digital transformation by bridging the crucial gap between physical locations and their digital representation.

The Department has released a beta version of National Addressing Grid ‘DIGIPIN’ on 19.07.2024 for public feedback, the details of which may be accessed through the India Post website: https://www.indiapost.gov.in/vas/Pages/digipin.aspx

The Department of Post in collaboration with MyGov cordially invites you to explore the beta platform and provide constructive feedback, which will help in fine tuning the specifications of the DIGIPIN.

My suggestion is, I am getting http error when I try to access the link related to the beta draft of DIGIPIN. My request is, please stop making the lengthy less interesting word or pdf documents. Instead make attractive ppts, or tableau books or power BI docs, or at least animated YouTube videos which will be easily understandable, even for a layman. As for DIGIPIN, Please provide a unique mail ID for each house with mail extension as ‘@postmailbox’. So, all the documents can whether it is government or private can be sent as E-Mail, to these e-mail IDs. An UPI ID can be created on the top of these e-mail ID with the phone number of the owner of the house. So, people can pay the money through these UPI IDs instead of physical money order. You can link this post E-Mail ID, phone number to a post office account. So the transactions happen online through these post office accounts.

It can be used to provide addresses for Indian assets in the sea such as oil rigs, future artificial islands, etc. The advent of DIGIPIN will mark a revolutionary step in India’s journey towards digital transformation by bridging the crucial gap between physical locations and their digital representation.
