European Address Forum (EAF)
The European Address Forum (EAF) has been established to encourage the development of well constructed addressing processes and the availability and efficient use of harmonized and good quality address data throughout Europe using the framework of the INSPIRE initiative and related standards for the benefit of citizens, business and government.
EAF is an open forum for all stakeholders involved in addressing processes, and in the collection, maintenance, use and dissemination of address data.
