National Addressing Reference: A Strategic National Project for Modernizing Regional Governance and Enhancing Public Security

 
     As part of the implementation of the National Addressing Reference project, launched by the Multisectoral National Committee under the supervision of the Ministry of Interior, Local Authorities, and Territorial Planning, this strategic initiative marks a significant step toward digitizing addresses across all the wilayas of the country. The National Gendarmerie has contributed as a technical partner since the project's inception, with the wilaya of Oran selected as a pilot model. The team succeeded in creating over 300,000 geolocatable addresses, a result that confirms the success of the experimental phase and opens broad prospects for scaling up the initiative. In pursuit of the objectives set for the horizon of 2030, and through the gradual generalization of the process across the national territory, the supervisory ministry has scheduled workshops in the wilayas of Bouira, Sidi Bel Abbès, Constantine and Ouargla to officially launch the operation in these regions.
 
  
 
  
 
    The importance of the National Addressing Reference lies in its ability to provide accurate reference data that facilitates the geographic localization of individuals, properties and events, thereby improving field interventions, particularly in the field of public security. The National Gendarmerie views this project as a cornerstone of national development and has mobilized all its resources related to geospatial technologies. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are indeed the optimal tool for processing, utilizing, and analyzing address-related data. To bring this vision to reality, the National Gendarmerie has involved users of the geoinformation chain in the process of nationwide deployment, within the operational addressing units established in each wilaya. This approach aims to ensure efficiency and add real value at all stages of the project’s implementation, while also contributing to the production and updating of the geographic layer of postal code boundaries in coordination with the wilayas services under the Ministry of Post and Telecommunications.
