In each case the start \/ end point is the geographic centroid of the postcode sector (i.e. the middle). From there the software takes a straight line to the nearest road, then follows the road network to the nearest point to the end point, with a straight line for the final section. There is a difference between the time and distance between the centre points of any two postcode sectors and the actual distance and time between full addresses, but this is proportionately smaller the further apart they are. In the case of the above Aberdeen to Birmingham example, there will only be a 1-2% difference between the Sector to Sector time and distance and the actual house to house time and distance. Where addresses are within the same Postcode Sector or adjacent Sectors then the calculated time \/ distance will be a poor estimate.

Individual property numbers, organisation names, etc are recorded as a list separated by a ';' withing the relevant column: e.g. the column Building_Number might look like \"1;3;5;7;9;11\" where these represent houses 1 to 11 on one side of the street.

In each case the start \/ end point is the geographic centroid of the postcode sector (i.e. the middle). From there the software takes a straight line to the nearest road, then follows the road network to the nearest point to the end point, with a straight line for the final section. There is a difference between the time and distance between the centre points of any two postcode sectors and the actual distance and time between full addresses, but this is proportionately smaller the further apart they are. In the case of the above Aberdeen to Birmingham example, there will only be a 1-2% difference between the Sector to Sector time and distance and the actual house to house time and distance. Where addresses are within the same Postcode Sector or adjacent Sectors then the calculated time \/ distance will be a poor estimate.
