The Smart Way to Locate your Business
I recently met with and old friend of mine Jim Nolan who introduced me to to Loc8 Codes (Location codes) a brilliantly modern and easy way to locate properties and places in Ireland.
From talking with Jim using the Loc8 codes appears to me to be the ideal way to overcome the time wasting and frustration that people experience in trying to quickly find exactly where the hotel, restaurant,sports pitch etc that they wish to travel to is located and to be guided to it.
Loc8 Code was founded by GPS Specialist Gary Delaney who has spent many years researching, developing and finessing the code to meet the exacting requirements of modern needs and usage.
Launched on the 12 July 2010 , with Enterprise Ireland and Garmin Sat Nav support, Loc 8 codes are now widely used by commercial businesses, tourist, Local Goverment, Emergency Services ,sporting bodies and private users.
Having checked, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that many of you are already displaying and using Loc8 Codes on their web sites. Ummera Smoked Products Ltd in West Cork is one and here is a link for you to browse http://www.ummera.com/contact_us.php
Why use Loc8 Codes?
Loc8 Codes can be
assigned for any location, not just
buildings
Loc8 Code is a vey user
friendly code for use by Sat Nav and GPS Enabled Mobile phone owners. Those
with Garmin SatNavs or Iphones (with point8 iphone App) and other units to come
will just be able to punch the code in and be guided there.
Loc8 Codes really have revolutionised address
codes and the way we navigate around the island of Ireland –the ease in
pinpointing any location makes the days
for struggling to find homes, businesses and
services a thing of the past.
For anybody needing their business, home etc to be
quickly located by customers, visitors or couriers the simple and easy way is for them to create
and use an unique Loc8 code for their properties.
Many
locations in Ireland already define their location using geographic
coordinates, they are difficult to remember, can be easily misunderstood and
have too many characters. Whilst they might be useful, they have to be modified
to make them more user friendly. This is exactly what Loc8 Codes do. They are
easy to remember and simple to work with.
Many organisations and businesses use Google Maps to help
people find them- Useful But Google maps is not accurate and won’t allow people be guided or navigated to your location.
Loc8 Code for accuracy uses Ordnance Survey
Mapping for all of Ireland .
Why not join the fast growing number of Hotels
,Restaurants,B&B’s etc who are seeing the benefits of using the smart way,
of letting customers,visitors and tourist
know exactly where they are located on the map and allowing their customers simply
guided to them.
Without
Loc8 Codes it’s hard to be precise
Ireland
has no postcode system and the problems this causes are well known. As many as
40% of Irish addresses are non unique which means finding precise locations can
be difficult. Add to this the fact that addresses often have Irish and English
language variants, each with different spellings, and the potential for confusion
soon becomes obvious.
Loc8
Codes solve the Postcode problem
Loc8
Codes allow locations across the whole of Ireland to be defined to an accuracy
of +/-6 metres. They consist of just 8 characters so they are easy to remember
and once they have been assigned, they are unique to that particular location.
What’s more, Loc8 Codes work independently of language so it doesn’t matter if
the address they are added to is in Irish, English, any other language for that
matter.
While
traditional postcode systems work by using road databases, the Loc8 system
works by area. It means you can assign a Loc8 Code to any location.
Construction site managers can tell building suppliers the Loc8 Code of their
site entrance and music festival organisers can ease site traffic by giving
ticket-holders Loc8 Codes for designated car parking areas. Loc8 Codes
revolutionise the way Ireland is navigated.
