Lets start

Hi all, thank you for participating at this work force. Lets start by sharing characteristics and specialities of our own countries addresses in the repository provided by centr. .de and .dk have already shared some of their insights, that you can use as guidance: https://gitlab.centr.org/centr/address-check/-/tree/main/DE?ref_type=heads We intend to use this insight to get a better understanding of possible challenges and necessary normalizations of data, before comparing it with Open Strteet Maps. The way addresses are handled by native people are more important for this approach than the official standard way of expressing addresses. Also, we will be able to provide you our address check tool in the next few weeks in its current status for a test period. It is optimized for german addresses, but also able to check foreign countries. The service will be hosted by Denic and is reachable for you as an API endpoint. All components, that we use for the service are hosted onsite. Everyone who is interested in trying it out as it is now, please send me ipv4 addresses , that we can whitelist for the service. We will then send you a bearer token and a minimalistic legal agreement. Please try it especially for your country's address data and provide us feedback, so we can improve the system. Kind Regards Robin -- Robin Gontermann Product Owner Data Science Angaben nach § 25a Absatz 1 GenG: DENIC eG (Sitz: Frankfurt am Main) Vorstand: Thomas Keller, Martin Küchenthal, Andreas Musielak, Sebastian Röthler Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrats: Daniel Rink Eingetragen unter Nr. 770 im Genossenschaftsregister, Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main Allgemeiner Hinweis zur Erfüllung unserer Informationspflichten gemäß Art. 13, Art. 14 DS-GVO: Informationen zur Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten durch DENIC finden Sie unter https://www.denic.de/datenverarbeitung-allgemein/

FW: Invitation to new Task Force: Address Check
by Patrick Myles 08 Nov '24

08 Nov '24

Hi all, Please note a couple more members on this list now. (.es, .be) Quick question to Robin and all: I create the repo on gitlab.centr.org but in hindsight wondered if it would have been easier for people to use github ? https://github.com/CENTRprojects/ ? It's not too late to change as we only just set it up and no activity yet. Robin - please provide next steps for this group. Regards Patrick From: Patrick Myles Sent: Monday, 4 November 2024 8:00 PM To: r&d(a)centrlists.org Subject: Invitation to new Task Force: Address Check Invitation to new Task Force: Title: Address Check Lead: DENIC, .de (Robin Gontermann) Background: To create an address check solution, that works well for European addresses and can be used as a standard in the CENTR community. As Registries we will be able to provide uniform address check results to our customers. Since we have seen, that some of us already achieved solutions optimized for domain holders living in their country, but struggling to find solutions for foreign citizens, we want to align our knowledge to create a general solution. Start date: November 2024 End date: May 2025 Deliverable 1: Share country specific knowledge about addresses in a Repository to be created in the CENTR environment. Interested participants can create a folder for their country code and share specific insights about addresses in their country. It is not just about official standardized ways of displaying an address, but also how people in general deal with addresses. For example, in Germany we have a 5-digit postal code system, but unofficially some leading zeros are skipped and there are many used ways of displaying the postal code like: 01814 = 1814 = DE-01814 = D-01814. The repository can also hold resources for address data, if there are any in your country. Additional: We invite interested participants to try out the DENIC Address Checker tool, which is currently optimized for German addresses, but is able to check addresses globally (with varying accuracy). Since it needs some requirements to set up the service, we are planning to provide each interested participant access to our system via API white listing. Long term it is the intention to make the Address Checker tool open source and/or offer it as a service. How does this work compare to NISFITS group? Address Check is more of a technical solution to a problem of address verification related to NIS requirements. Communication: CENTR has opened a mailing list for participants and a gitlab repository.
