what3words is a geocoding system that encodes geographic coordinates into a unique three-word address. The system divides the world into a grid of 3m x 3m squares, with each square assigned a unique three-word combination. This allows for a precise and easy-to-use addressing system that can be used to navigate to any location in the world, even if it doesn't have a traditional street address.

The what3words system has been adopted by a number of organizations for a variety of applications, including emergency services, delivery services, and event planning.

This forge component wraps all endpoints of their API version 3 (except speech recognition) as an integration service, following best practices:

  • Convert to 3-word-address
  • Convert to coordinates
  • Autosuggest
  • Grid section
  • Available languages

For more information, please see documentation or the what3words website. To use the API you need to register for an API key on their developer site.

Also included is a demo application that shows how to use the integration service’s server actions and provides direct links to respective what3words API documentation.
