On a sign, a form or a delivery note

The whole code, #J16TP-X19G7. It needs nothing else: no city, no street, no network to read it back.

Said aloud, in Ionian Islands Region

Navagio Beach X19G7: a name both people know, then the last five characters. They give back the exact code for anywhere within 4.0 km north or south and 4.2 km east or west of Navagio Beach. Further away the same five name somewhere else, which is why the whole code is what goes on a sign.

Copied by hand, or read over a phone
