Summary/Abstract: The P4 system, proposed in the study, is a new method of geocoding that aims to address some of the disadvantages of earlier systems. This system employs rectangular cells that are assigned an alphanumeric number whose length is determined by the cell's level of subdivision (i.e., cell dimensions). All cells within the same subdivision level have the same area. Special attention is paid to the polar regions, which are covered by two special cells. The system offers different levels of accuracy and can be used as a substitute for traditional geographic data such as street addresses or postal codes.
