My son is moving into a new build property, and although it has an official address and postcode, my inbuilt satnav, doesn’t recognise it. The servicing dealer updated the mapping 6 months ago.

Are we able to use W3W, which uniquely describes his position, to help me “home in”?

Thanks in anticipation.

Satnav mapping is often a year or more out of date

The best you can do is when you're there, see if there is an option to save your current position as a Lat / Long location
Let's be careful out there !
