The Plus Codes are a unique solution, a digital address given to every location on earth. Shelter Associates and UNICEF partnered to map social and basic services of the slum settlements with unique location codes. This location code can be used on Google Maps and will allow slum residents to access services such as postal, emergency services, gas cylinders and other online services. In addition to that, the WASH infrastructure facilities with the slum such as Community Toilets, Manholes, Drainage Chambers, Water standposts, etc. can be located easily. City Municipal Corporations will be able to provide basic facilities like water, sanitation, waste management, electricity, etc. to every household accurately.
