Plus Code (Open Location Code)

Plus Code, also called Open Location Code, is an open standard developed by Google. A 10-character code identifies a roughly 14 × 14 meter area anywhere on Earth.

Designed for places that lack street addresses and for easy verbal sharing. Plus Codes work in Google Maps directly — paste any code into the search bar.
