A what3words Case Study
Mercury Project Solutions has been appointed Authorised Solutions Consultant for what3words in Australia and New Zealand. Facing a country where 89% of the landmass lacks formal addresses—causing missed deliveries, hard-to-find assets and delayed aid—Mercury will bring what3words’ global grid of unique 3‑word addresses (covering 57 trillion 3m×3m squares) to public- and private-sector clients to solve complex location problems.
Mercury will plan, design and implement location-based solutions that incorporate what3words, giving clients a simple, precise way to communicate any location. The partnership enables faster, less ambiguous navigation and logistics, better emergency and field operations, and improved access for businesses and services; what3words’ widespread use by navigation apps, governments and NGOs demonstrates the practical benefits Mercury can now deliver locally.
