Estland

Q: In what language are the data and documentation provided?

The dataset itself is provided in the official Estonian language (including column headers and place names) to maintain strict consistency with local standards. The Data Description (User Guide) is provided in English, offering detailed translations and technical definitions for every field to assist international users.

Q: How is the street address logic structured (Ranges and Parity)?

To support precise address validation, streets are segmented based on house number ranges. The dataset includes:
· majaalgus / majalopp: The starting and ending house numbers for the specific segment.
· paarsus: The parity indicator ('O' for Odd, 'E' for Even, 'A' for All). Users must utilize these three columns to assign the correct postal code to a specific street address.

Q: What does an empty value in the House Number columns indicate?

If the majaalgus (Start) and majalopp (End) fields are empty, it indicates that the postal code applies to the entire street or locality. In these cases, no specific house number validation is required.

Q: Why are some Municipality fields (vald_linnaosa_linn) left blank?

This occurs when a settlement (such as a major city) functions as its own independent municipality. To avoid data redundancy, the name is listed only in the Settlement field (alev_alevik_küla), and the Municipality field is intentionally left blank in accordance with official administrative formatting.

Q: What is the format of the postal code?

Estonia utilizes a 5-digit numeric postal code (e.g., 76605). This is found in the suhtnumber column.

Q: What file formats are included in the delivery?

The package includes CSV, Excel (.xlsx), and TXT formats. All files are encoded in UTF-8 to strictly preserve Estonian characters (e.g., ä, ö, õ, ü).

Q: Is this a one-time purchase or a subscription?

This is a one-time purchase. The license grants perpetual use for internal business purposes with no recurring fees.

Q: What is the refund policy?

Due to the digital nature of the product, all sales are final and non-refundable. We recommend downloading the Free Sample to inspect the data structure—specifically the address range and parity columns—to ensure it meets your technical requirements before purchasing.
