Address- Victorian perspective
AddressesSometimes seem to have been made into an art-form!
4819 is about new addresses
As well as new developments, it should be used in any address review, address reassignment or property redevelopment
• It does not demand existing addresses be made to conform
(Although, bad addressing should always be amended)
4819 - this review is about simplifying addressing
4819: 2011
Rural, urban ........ and other stuff!
If required, almost anything can now be given its own unique address to assist in defining its location
• Current 2003 Standard developed by ICSM Working Group 1999-2002
• Review initiated by Standards Australia in 2008
• Referred to Intergovernmental Committee for Surveying and Mapping (ICSM)
• ICSM sponsored review and appointed Street Addressing Special Interest Group (SASIG) to oversee review program in 2009
• Members of SASIG included:
– DSE
– Australia Post & New Zealand Post
– Emergency Services Telecommunications Authority
– Naming & Addressing authorities from each State and Territory & New Zealand
– Federal Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations
– Geoscience Australia
– Public Sector Mapping Agency
AS/NZS 4819: Rural and Urban Addressing
• SASIG have completely re-written AS/NZS 4819 with the aim of making the document more user-friendly and accessible.
• The Goal: to provide instructions for assigning addresses that can be readily and unambiguously identified and located.
• 5 key objectives guided the writing process:
AS/NZS 4819: Rural and Urban Addressing

Objective 5Objective 4Objective 3Objective 2Objective 1
• SASIG wrote the new draft Standard over a period of 18 months
• ICSM supported hiring contractor with extensive knowledge in thearea (Peter Mosley) to write a first-draft based on earlier SASIG discussions and feedback.
• Subsequent drafts revised by SASIG specialist team and later reviewed and endorsed by SASIG membership
• New Standard contained in 8 Sections with 4 Appendices
• Key benefits:
– Provides users with requirements for assigning addresses, namingroads and defining localities
– Enables creation of addresses suitable for inclusion in GeocodedNational Address File (G-NAF)
– Improved provision of services by stakeholders who utilise addresses

Incident at Unit 106/456 Princes Hwy .......
Unnamed ‘private’ roads and sequential numbering makes finding the correct location within a large complex more difficult than playing ‘Where’s Wally’.
