The entirety of India is actually contained within three of the largest layer of quadrants, 8J 7J, and 7M. Here, the first four characters are the area code, with everything after being the local code. That’s the Plus Code for the Mumbai branch of Indiatimes, though it’ll be listed locally as just 2R3H+G65. That way, an alphanumeric code can give you an exact location marker right down to within a few metres. After all, if we can have a phone number and IP address, why are physical addresses so long and cumbersome? Instead, Plus Codes transforms your address into a simple 10-digit (sometimes 11) alphanumeric code, making remembering and sharing it an absolute breeze.īasically, Google has divided the entire world into tiny quadrants at the smallest level, with 20x20 of these quadrants making up a larger one. Plus Codes are basically the company’s interpretation of a mailing address for the modern age. As part of its efforts to streamline Google Maps for the Indian audience, the company has now launched something called ‘Plus Codes’, which it promises to make sharing your address easier than ever.
