UPRN GB

Input and output ports that uniquely identify the plot of land that contains an address in Great Britain. The UPRN is the unique property reference number.

The Ordnance Survey of Great Britain maintains the UPRN data. The Ordnance Survey uses the Postal Address File (PAF) data from the Royal Mail to assign each address to the correct plot of land. A unique property reference number contains 12 digits.

Because the unique property reference number identifies a plot of land and not an address, the number does not change when an address changes.

UPRN GB Usage

To identify the plot of land that contains a valid Great Britain address, select the UPRN GB input port. Use the port to find the unique property reference number for the address.

To identify the address that a unique property reference number represents, select the UPRN GB output port. Use the port to find the current deliverable address for the mailbox on the property.

You can use the unique property reference number to track the changes to an address over time.

When you select the UPRN GB input port, configure the Address Validator transformation to run in address code lookup mode. When you select the UPRN GB output port, configure the Address Validator transformation to run in batch mode or in interactive mode.
