Gazetteer specialists Aligned Assets are proving themselves to once again be ahead of the competition by announcing today that their range of gazetteer and address management software will be compatible with the new AddressBase TM range of addressing products.
AddressBase will be the Country’s most definitive database of address and location data ever created, and will see the development of a process that will allow joined up working across the entire public sector and private sector.
Formally announced by the Ordnance Survey at the AGI Conference on 22nd September, AddressBase is the name given to the publicly available products formed from the merging of local government’s National Land and Property Gazetteer (NLPG), Address Layer 2 from the Ordnance Survey and the Royal Mail’s Postcode Address File (PAF).
The compatible software from Aligned Assets will initially include the Symphony Bluelight Gazetteer, which gives industry leading gazetteer management functionality to the fire service, police force and ambulance services.
Additionally, compatibility will be in place for Symphony iExchange that will enable the exporting of AddressBase data to both frontline and back office systems, and Symphony SinglePoint that will give corporate access via web services. This will allow the emergency services to have a level of addressing accuracy never seen before and the resilience that comes from every person and every system referencing the same data.
Symphony SinglePoint will also enable access for the NHS, local and central government, the national parks and many more across the public sector, for whom the AddressBase products will be available under the Public Sector Mapping Agreement (PSMA) and to the private sector to whom it will be available under commercial licenses.
Intuitively able to ‘plug’ into a wide variety of systems from CRMs to GIS, Symphony SinglePoint will allow everyone to enjoy a level of addressing accuracy never before available.
“For all our customers in the emergency services and for all those in the private sector looking to use these AddressBase products, we’re invested considerable resources to ensure that their transition will be as seamless as possible,” explained Dinesh Thanigasalam, Managing Director of Aligned Assets.
“We’re entering a new era in addressing and with the AddressBase range of products offering the most definitive address data ever created, we are producing the most advanced and cost-effective software solutions to allow organisations, both large and small, to gain full value from it.”

Two More Law of Street Naming and Numbering Training Courses Announced
Woking, Surrey 21st September 2011 – Aligned Assets are pleased to announced the scheduling of two more training courses in the ‘Law of Street Naming and Numbering’.
To be held in Bristol on 29th November and in Bolton on 6th December, the courses will be run by the UK's leading expert in the field, James Richardson, a solicitor in local government from 1982 until his retirement in 2004.
These one day courses are designed to equip the delegate with all the knowledge and skills required to legally fulfil their statutory duties in Street Naming and Numbering.
As an essential component of local government, Street Naming and Numbering plays a crucial role in everything from the collection of council tax to the collection of waste and recycling. Despite its importance to many of the modern functions within local government, the law governing it dates back to 1847 and in order for the process to operate correctly and within the confines of the law, understanding the legalities involved is of the utmost importance.
Items covered by the course include the Towns Improvement Clauses Act 1847 and the Public Health Act 1925, plus explanations on how a council can adopt either of them. Also included will be the requirements in the Local Government Act 1972, how to investigate rule breakers and prosecute offences, plus the large amount of case studies to go through and discuss.
After attending one of the courses in London, Evan D. Jones, Senior Engineer for Highways at Isle of Anglesey Council said, “It was a very worthwhile and very helpful course. There were good presentations and excellent opportunities to interact, discuss and ask questions.”
