Anyone out there involved in spatial data?
We are currently building a new house on our front lawn, is addressed as 8 Brown Street*, and we are currently at 10 Brown Street. This all makes sense sequentially, as the number before us is 6 Brown Street. In the recent subdivision process, our new place was designated as 8 Brown Street
But I'm noticing that a few databases simply dont acknowledge 8 Brown Street e.g. Chorus SAT, Pass the Parcel, Bing maps, NZ Post postcode finder, QV property search
While Google Maps does locate it perfectly.

I'm not so worried about those specific examples, I'm more interested/concerned generally. None of those examples should be a particular problem, it just that I can imagine getting caught out on signing up for new services, mailing lists etc in the future

What will it take for these databases to be updated with 8 Brown Street, over what sort of timeframe? Is there anyway to contact the data clearing houses and update these details directly with them? Should the subdividing process somehow magically update these databases eventually?

Interestingly, I recently tried to send a parcel via Pass the Parcel, to another address that they didnt have in their database. I called the call centre and they told me to put in a random address from that street, and put the actual address in the 'special delivery instructions' field.

NB: I have a basic understanding of GIS having studied it a fair bit at uni.

*I dont actually live in Brown Street
