Australia Postal Address File Statistics02/05/2006 10:50 AMLocation : Office
Each quarter we receive the updated Postal Address File (PAF) from the Australia Post AMAS program for distribution to our Address-IT clients. We basically take this database and run it thru a bit of software that we call the PAFinator. The PAFinator builds our version of the PAF file for inclusion with Address-IT. We then distribute the latest release of the Address-IT products a month prior to the expiration date (end of each quarter) for the previous verison. This gives our clients at least a month to then upgrade to the latest version.
Each time we receive the PAF we also receive a summary of the latest PAF statistics. It is always pretty interesting to see where the growth is from previous months.
Here is a summary of how many delivery points there are in the PAF.
I have also included the rest of the PAF stats such as how many postcodes are there, localities, etc.
