Abstract EN
Finding addresses has become a major challenge because of population growth and its corresponding effect on city expansion.
The use of postcodes is essential to save time and effort in reaching a destination.
This research focuses on the use of geographical coordinates to automatically generate postcodes in defining addresses.
The proposed approach is based on the use of cadastral maps.
The postcode label in cadastral maps is processed by using image processing tools.
The proposed method has been applied on cadastral map to give postcode for each parcel.
The proposed method has also been applied to the forest map to provide a code for each tree.
The obtained post code can be easily integrated into navigation software, and people can use the code to reach their destination.
The postcode in this system is suggested to be used alone without a need for building number or street name.
