This article addresses existing studies related to geographical and statistical data and their applications and discusses the World Grid Square Reference architecture and its potential industrial applications. The World Grid Square coding system is a compatible extension of the Grid Square Coding System (JIS X0410), one of the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS).
