* [[QDGC|Quarter Degree Grid Cells]]
* [[Natural Area Code|NAC]] (patended), area codes (area can be indefinitely small)
* {{anchor|GEOID}}GEOID, the name of [[United States Census Bureau]] geographic identifiers.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.census.gov/geo/reference/geoidentifiers.html | title = Understanding Geographic Identifiers (GEOIDs) | website = [[United States Census Bureau]] | access-date = March 3, 2016}}</ref>
* In the United States, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Codes are often used. ANSI INCITS 446-2008 is entitled "Identifying Attributes for Named Physical and Cultural Geographic Features (Except Roads and Highways) of the United States, Its Territories, Outlying Areas, and Freely Associated Areas, and the Waters of the Same to the Limit of the Twelve-Mile Statutory Zone".
* [[National Topographic System]] in Canada

===Other standards===
Some standards and name servers include: ISO 3166, FIPS, INSEE, Geonames, IATA and [[International Civil Aviation Organization|ICAO]].

A number of commercial solutions have also been proposed:

*[[WOEID]] (Where on Earth IDentifier) is a unique 32-bit reference identifier that identifies any feature on Earth.
* NAC Locator provides a universal geocoding address for all locations on the planet.
