Unique Property Reference Numbers is a standard that contain unique numerical identifiers:
- UPRNs are the unique identifiers for every addressable location in Great Britain
The UPRN along with their associated grid references, are available as open data under Open Government License (OGL) from the Ordnance Survey Data Hub. Further information, such as address or building classifications are available from Ordnance Survey products under the Public Sector Geospatial Agreement.

Systems, services and applications that store or publish data sets containing property and street information must use the UPRN and USRN identifiers
