26、NOTE This document has been prepared by experts coming from CEN/TC 331 and UPU, under the framework of the Memorandum of Understanding between the UPU and CEN. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. This docume

27、nt (CEN/TR 14142-2:2011), is the CEN equivalent of UPU1)standard S42-6 Part B. It may be amended only after prior consultation, between CEN/TC 331 and the UPU Standards Board, in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between CEN and the UPU. The UPUs contribution to the document was made,

28、by the UPU Standards Board2)and its sub-groups, in accordance with the rules given in Part V of the “General information on UPU standards“. This document is the equivalent to Part B of a two-part UPU Standard, S42: International postal address components and templates. S42 was originally published a

29、s a single part standard covering the definition of address components and postal address templates with examples, but has been split into two parts in order to separate the general aspects which apply to all countries and which can be expected to remain stable from the specific aspects which apply

30、to each country considered in itself and conventions adopted by the working group which may be modified in the light of further experience. EN 14142-1:2011 contains the conceptual hierarchy of segments, constructs, elements and element sub-types, code tables, and the definition of the template langu

31、ages in order to account for addresses from countries around the world. CEN/TR 14142-2:2011, this part, contains the specific natural language and XML templates, rendition instructions, mapping conventions, and presentation guidelines for each countrys addresses that have been provided to the UPU. 1

32、)The Universal Postal Union (UPU) is the specialized institution of the United Nations that regulates the universal postal service. The postal services of its 189 member countries form the largest physical distribution network in the world. Some 5 million postal employees working in over 660 000 pos

33、t offices all over the world handle an annual total of 425 billion letters-post items in the domestic service and almost 6,7 billion in the international service. Some 4,5 billion parcels are sent by post annually. Keeping pace with the changing communications market, posts are increasingly using ne

34、w communication and information technologies to move beyond what is traditionally regarded as their core postal business. They are meeting higher customer expectations with an expanded range of products and value-added services.2)The UPUs Standards Board develops and maintains a growing number of st

35、andards to improve the exchange of postal-related information between posts, and promotes the compatibility of UPU and international postal initiatives. It works closely with posts, customers, suppliers and other partners, including various international organizations. The Standards Board ensures th

36、at coherent standards are developed in areas such as electronic data interchange (EDI), mail encoding, postal forms and meters. UPU standards are published in accordance with the rules given in Part VII of the General information on UPU standards, which may be freely downloaded from the UPU world-wi

Postal addresses, which combine private re

38、cipient information with publicly known delivery point data, provide the mechanism through which mailers specify the intended recipient and the means by which the postal operator can fulfil its delivery commitment. Traditionally, postal operators have been highly flexible with regard to the manner i

39、n which postal items can be addressed: any form and content of address was acceptable as long as it permitted sufficiently unambiguous determination of the delivery point. Even today, many posts pride themselves on their ability, using staff intelligence and local demographic knowledge, to deliver p

40、ostal items carrying incomplete or unusual address representations. However, increasing volumes and labour cost rates long ago reached the point at which automation became not only economic, but essential. As a result, it has become more and more vital to ensure that the vast majority of postal item

41、s are addressed in a way which can be processed automatically, without risk of misinterpretation. Today, the vast majority of postal items carry printed addresses which are extracted from computer databases. Such databases need to be maintained in the face of population mobility, creation and suppre

42、ssion of delivery points and changes in their specification such as renaming of streets, renumbering of properties, etc. Moreover, there is a growing tendency for companies to exchange or trade address data and, in the context of the European Single Market, for companies in one country to hold addre

43、ss data of organisations and individuals in other countries, which might use different approaches to the structuring of printed addresses. In this context, the UPU Postal Operations Councils POST*Code Project Team charged its sub-project team 2 to develop a standard, covering the definition of addre

44、ss components and postal address templates. This standard, International Postal Address Components and Templates, is the result of this development. 1 Scope This part of the standard describes the address templates for each country, i.e. the specific way an address is formatted in each country, indi

45、cating in particular the order in which the various elements appear. The address templates may include rendition instructions, specifying how elements are to be rendered for printing.4EN14142-1:2011 contains material that is not country-specific and is expected to remain stable for a significant per

46、iod of time. CEN/TR14142-2:2011 contains the country specific information as well as explaining mapping conventions and design considerations that are generic in scope but are still evolving and have a current status rather than a fixed resolution. What then are the characteristics of the generic ma

47、terial in Part 2? As an example, the definition of (40.17 district) as a postal address element is stable and not country-specific, for example, and thus the definition is assigned to Part 1. At the same time, some of the uses of (40.17 district) to represent different levels and positions, while oc

48、curring in one or more specific country templates, reflect generic element mapping conventions and generic template design considerations. These generic conventions and considerations are explained in Part 2, along with generic rendition instructions used in country templates, together with the coun

49、try templates, country-specific rendition instructions, and presentation rules defined by each country. 3Terms in bold are defined either in clause 3, Terms and Definitions or clause 5, Postal Address Components. 4The Brazilian postcode, for example, is saved in the format 99999999 in a database.
