The NAD is a spatial database containing address data, point location coordinates, jurisdictions, record level metadata and other supporting data for addressable locations including structures, some sub-units within those structures and landmarks as included in the aggregated datasets from providers included therein.

National Address DatabaseThis National Geospatial Data Asset (NGDA) dataset, shared as a U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) feature layer, displays address data in the United States. Per USDOT, "The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) and its partners from all levels of government recognize the need for a National Address Database (NAD). Accurate and up-to-date addresses are critical to transportation safety and are a vital part of Next Generation 9-1-1. They are also essential for a broad range of government services, including mail delivery, permitting, and school siting. To meet this need, USDOT partners with address programs from state, local, and tribal governments to compile their authoritative data into the NAD."District of Columbia (DC) Residential AddressesData currency: Current federal service (Address Points from National Address Database)NGDAID: 196 (National Address Database (NAD))For more information: Getting to know the National Address Database (NAD); National Address DatabaseFor feedback, please contact: Esri_US_Federal_Data@esri.com NGDA Data SetThis data set is part of the NGDA Transportation Theme Community.

Geoscape G-NAF is the geocoded address database for Australian businesses and governments. It’s the trusted source of geocoded address data for Australia with over 50 million contributed addresses distilled into 15.4 million G-NAF addresses. It is built and maintained by Geoscape Australia using independently examined and validated government data.

From 22 August 2022, Geoscape Australia is making G-NAF available in an additional simplified table format. G-NAF Core makes accessing geocoded addresses easier by utilising less technical effort.

G-NAF Core will be updated on a quarterly basis along with G-NAF.

Further information about contributors to G-NAF is available here.

With more than 15 million Australian physical address record, G-NAF is one of the most ubiquitous and powerful spatial datasets. The records include geocodes, which are latitude and longitude map coordinates. G-NAF does not contain personal information or details relating to individuals.

Updated versions of G-NAF are published on a quarterly basis. Previous versions are available here

Users have the option to download datasets with feature coordinates referencing either GDA94 or GDA2020 datums.

Changes in the August 2025 release

• Nationally, the August 2025 update of G-NAF shows an overall increase of 40,716 addresses (0.30%). The total number of addresses in G-NAF now stands at 15,794,643 of which 14,950,491 or 94.66% are principal.

• In the ACT, there have been minor updates to the address parsing of flat-numbered addresses aimed at: improving the address representation of flat-numbered addresses; improving address coverage; and improving address alignment between contributors. This change affects approximately 4,000 addresses.

• A small number of additional address sites have implemented the use of the BUILDING_NAME attribute as part of the merge criteria to improve address coverage for flat-numbered addresses in NSW and QLD. These changes have resulted in the creation of approximately 400 addresses in NSW and 120 in QLD.

• A focus has been applied to Tasmanian street-locality addresses to reduce the number of these addresses. For the August 2025 release, there is a reduction of some 900 street-locality addresses in Tasmania.

• Geoscape has moved product descriptions, guides and reports online to https://docs.geoscape.com.au.

Further information on G-NAF, including FAQs on the data, is available here or through Geoscape Australia’s network of partners. They provide a range of commercial products based on G-NAF, including software solutions, consultancy and support.

Additional information: On 1 October 2020, PSMA Australia Limited began trading as Geoscape Australia.

NZ Addresses is the national authoritative dataset for physical addresses in New Zealand.

This dataset contains the street number, street name and suburb of an address, as well as a unique ID and Territorial Authority.

Refer to the NZ Addresses Data Dictionary for detailed metadata and information about this dataset.

Please note this dataset replaced NZ Street Address in January 2023.

Background

This dataset provides all allocated addresses as advised to Toitū Te Whenua LINZ by Territorial Authorities (TAs). Under the Local Government Act 1974 (section 319) it is the responsibility of the TAs to advise the Surveyor-General at Toitū Te Whenua LINZ of all allocated addresses in their district.

Address data is maintained by Toitū Te Whenua LINZ in the Address Information Management System (AIMS) and Comprehensive Address Data Store (CADS), which are centralised databases for the management of national addresses, including for electoral purposes. This dataset is updated weekly on the LINZ Data Service.

APIs and web services This dataset is available via ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS REST services, as well as our standard APIs. LDS APIs and OGC web services ArcGIS Online map services

The data asset provides a link to all Change of Address Applications filed via the Internet datasets. Each dataset provides monthly volumes at the national level from federal fiscal year 2008 on for Internet Change of Address. The dataset includes only Internet Change of Address transactions. It should be noted that, in addition to using our online Change of Address application, the public might change an address by calling our 800 number, visiting a field office, or mailing us the request. This dataset pertains only to the online alternative.

This dataset is subset of the address point data from Minnesota suppliers which have been reviewed by the United States Department of Transportation for the National Address Database and matched against the United States Postal Service national address database to append each address with a Zip+4 attribute code. Only matching locations (USPS_matched) are appended and retained in the dataset.

This dataset contains the address points of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. The dataset is structured according to the INSPIRE Annex I Theme - Addresses. The data has been derived from the Cadastral database. For every parcel, where an address is known, the address point is located on the entrance of the main building(s). The syntax of the addresses is compliant with the "CACLR" - database (https://www.services-publics.lu/caclr/index.action) These addresses are used for the geolocalisation in the Geoportal (http://map.geoportal.lu) They have been transposed into the INSPIRE data model and coordinate system. Description copied from catalog.inspire.geoportail.lu.

The Geocoded National Address File (G-NAF) dataset has been made available for GovHack 2018 as a single file for easier use. It consists of addresses in current use from PSMA’s May 2018 release and covers all of Australia with over 14 million addresses in total. The data is made available in a pipe separated (PSV) format consisting of all the main elements of an address, including the latitude and longitude for identifying the location of each address. More information about each of the fields is available from the G-NAF May 2018 product description. This dataset will be available until the GovHack Red Carpet Awards night held in November 2018.

The Reach Address Database (RAD) stores the reach address of each Water Program feature that has been linked to the underlying surface water features (streams, lakes, etc) in the National Hydrology Database (NHD). (A reach is the portion of a stream between two points of confluence. A confluence is the location where two or more streams flow together.)

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Address Ranges Feature Shapefile (ADDRFEAT.dbf) contains the geospatial edge geometry and attributes of all unsuppressed address ranges for a county or county equivalent area. The term "address range" refers to the collection of all possible structure numbers from the first structure number to the last structure number and all numbers of a specified parity in between along an edge side relative to the direction in which the edge is coded. Single-address address ranges have been suppressed to maintain the confidentiality of the addresses they describe. Multiple coincident address range feature edge records are represented in the shapefile if more than one left or right address ranges are associated to the edge. The ADDRFEAT shapefile contains a record for each address range to street name combination. Address range associated to more than one street name are also represented by multiple coincident address range feature edge records. Note that the ADDRFEAT shapefile includes all unsuppressed address ranges compared to the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp) which only includes the most inclusive address range associated with each side of a street edge. The TIGER/Line shapefile contain potential address ranges, not individual addresses. The address ranges in the TIGER/Line Files are potential ranges that include the full range of possible structure numbers even though the actual structures may not exist.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national filewith no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independentdata set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Address Range / Feature Name Relationship File (ADDRFN.dbf) contains a record for each address range / linear feature name relationship. The purpose of this relationship file is to identify all street names associated with each address range. An edge can have several feature names; an address range located on an edge can be associated with one or any combination of the available feature names (an address range can be linked to multiple feature names). The address range is identified by the address range identifier (ARID) attribute that can be used to link to the Address Ranges Relationship File (ADDR.dbf). The linear feature name is identified by the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) attribute that can be used to link to the Feature Names Relationship File (FEATNAMES.dbf).
