Standard Point Location Code

Add article description

The Standard Point Location Code® (SPLC™) is a 9 digit geographic code used by North American transportation industries, especially rail. SPLC is owned and maintained by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association.[1] SPLC exist for terminals within the United States, Canada, and Mexico. For the US and Canada, the first two digits refer to a state, province or territory. The second two digits refer to a county or its equivalent. The third two digits refer to a city or municipal region. The remaining three digits refer to a specific location within the city. For Mexican SPLC, the first three digits refer to the state and the second three digits refer to a municipal region within the state. Like the US and Canadian SPLC, the last three digits refer to a specific location within the city. If the last three digits are "000" then the SPLC is not defined beyond city.
