YardCode
Digital Addressing Platform for Nigerians

Not just a digital address.
A permanent one.

Never assigned. Already there, fixed to the ground, waiting to be read.

Check a verification

Someone given a sixteen-digit verification code can confirm it here.

Shows the verified YardCode and the holder's name. Nothing else: the coordinates, the evidence and the report are for the organisation that requested the verification.

Nobody assigns a YardCode

A street name is decided by someone. A YardCode is calculated from the ground.

Homes and workplaces

Houses, flats, compounds, offices, shops.

Everywhere else

Farms, workshops, market stalls, project sites, bare land.

A missing street name is no barrier

Where naming has not yet reached, a code still exists. If a place has a position, it has an address.

How verification works

Two ways. An organisation can use either.

1

The claim

The person gives their location and confirms it on a satellite view.

2

The evidence

The app collects location and device signals in the background. No live tracking.

3

The decision

Presence is weighed against the claim. Thin evidence is sent back, not guessed at.

No self-service signup. Every organisation is reviewed first.

Security

This system holds where people live.

Encrypted individually

AES-256-GCM per field, searchable through keyed hashes without decrypting.

Scoped by design

Every query bound to one organisation in the database itself.

Least privilege

App keys start a verification and nothing else. Developers work without seeing addresses.

Auditable

Every administrative action, append-only. Deletion takes four deliberate steps.
