Before we start, what are Eircodes anyway ?
Ireland’s Postcode i.e. address identifier
![Page 4: Eircodes Developments in Local Authorities€¦ · Presentation Overview ... Contact Hugh Mangan at OSi 01 8247516/ 087 4101820 hugh.mangan@osi.ie. Formal Statistics Liaison Group](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050410/5f870c2c7f0ee66e7217ace6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Formal Statistics Liaison Group - 8th Administrative Data Seminar
Context:
Action 24 – Civil Service Reform Plan:
• Action Sponsors requested all public bodies should store &
integrate Eircodes as part of an address whenever it is
relevant to transactions between the PSB & their customer.
• Value of National Data Infrastructure was highlighted &
insights that can be extracted when individual data sources
are linked.
• Eircode API & OGP Eircode Encoding Framework are
promoted as tools for integrating Eircodes in all systems &
databases that collect address information.

Formal Statistics Liaison Group - 8th Administrative Data Seminar
Scope for Improvements & the Benefits: • Evidence has shown that where Public Service
Bodies (PSB’s) have actively looked for Eircode in customer transactions, the coverage has increased substantially, i.e. ‘just ask’ approach.
• Increase Population of Eircodes in key Databases.
• Leverage benefit of an Eircode being a key identifier.
• Better reporting in local and national context, improve service delivery and aid better planning.

2nd National Initiative -Eircode Encoding Framework
Aim: increase storage & utilisation of Eircodes across public
sector data holdings.
Department of Communications, Climate Action &
Environment (DCCAE) asked Office of Government
Procurement (OGP) to develop a multi-supplier framework
agreement for provision of Eircode address matching & bulk
encoding service on databases which are currently absent of
Eircodes.
These Eircodes are then uploaded back into existing
databases.

Eircode Encoding Framework
• Simplifies process of acquiring such services from fully accredited
suppliers.
• Designated commercial organisations with fixed pricing appointed to
each Lot, & each Lot can be availed of by PSB’s & non-commercial
state bodies via a ‘Direct Drawdown’ approach.
• The framework agreement allows Public Service Bodies to select
from four lots that appropriately matches the size of their data
holding being encoded, as follows:

2. Capturing Eircodes in iHouse to Map Housing Stock
Objective: Prior to the introduction of Eircodes, Louth Co. Co. had undertaken an exercise to map all iHouse properties and link these to the GeoDirectory. The objective of this was to improve the quality of addresses recorded for properties owned in iHouse.
Benefits/Efficiencies Outcome:
Updated all property addresses in iHouse with their correct address as per GeoDirectory.
They were then able to easily populate the database with Eircodes when there were released.
![Page 22: Eircodes Developments in Local Authorities€¦ · Presentation Overview ... Contact Hugh Mangan at OSi 01 8247516/ 087 4101820 hugh.mangan@osi.ie. Formal Statistics Liaison Group](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050410/5f870c2c7f0ee66e7217ace6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Formal Statistics Liaison Group - 8th Administrative Data Seminar
2. Capturing Eircodes in iHouse to Map Housing Stock• In Louth, a procedure was implemented where new properties added to
iHouse have their Eircode recorded.• An FME Script is scheduled to run nightly to extract the co-ordinates for
all new records with Eircodes, in order to keep the iHouse Map up-to-date.
• An additional FME Script checks for potential errors in Eircodes and Housing Admin Staff are e-mailed reports indicating where properties have no/invalid Eircode recorded.
Example provided by Helen Divilly (Louth Co. Co.).

4. Using Eircodes for the Vacant Housing Survey
Objective:
• Identify vacant properties as part of the Rebuilding Ireland programme
• Locate and survey the property using mobile app
How it was done: • They undertook a desktop analysis, utilising CSO 2016 Census and
Eircodes to identify EDs with high vacant dwellings.• Used Spatial Analysis to investigate where in the County there
were a high volume of Social Housing Applications.
Example provided by Mark Mitchell (Wexford Co. Co.)

7. iHouse/Census 2016 – Data matching Exercise
Conclusion:• Maintenance of valid PPSNs and Eircodes key for linkage of
data with CSO.• More processes to be put in place to ensure data integrity.• iHouse is implemented widely across Local Authorities in
Ireland. This process could potentially be replicated in those LAs or approached at a National level.
