Addresses

Addresses represent physical locations associated with schemes and developments. Formation supports geospatial data for mapping and location-based features.

Navigate to Addresses in the main application to browse and search the address directory.

  1. Click New Address
  2. Fill in the address fields:
    • Address lines — Street-level address information
    • Town/City — The town or city
    • Postcode — UK postcode
    • Country — Select the country
  3. Optionally set the Location (latitude/longitude) using the map picker
  4. Save the address

Addresses with location data are displayed on an interactive map. You can:

  • Pan and zoom to explore different areas
  • Click markers to view address details
  • Draw boundaries to define scheme areas

Formation stores geometry data in WKT (Well-Known Text) format. The map interface converts between WKT and visual representations automatically.
