Automatic Mail Sorter in Kolkata before Pujas?

We had a meeting with the Chief Post Master General, West Bengal and Dy Director General NIC yesterday. They wanted access to our server having 1:1,000 map of Kolkata. This would be required to correlate PIN codes with street names using GIS. Then, through an automatic mail sorter programme, whenever there would be a mismatch between the PIN and address, a correction would be made. The idea is speedier post delivery. This is already launched in Delhi. In Kolkata I think it should be in operation before the Pujas.

We were, of course, happy to help.
