RAPID

'RAPID' is an acronym for Rural Address Property IDentification, a scheme instituted in New Zealand to assist emergency services in identifying and locating rural properties.
However, since the adoption of ''Australian/New Zealand Standard 4819:2003 Geographic Information – Rural and urban addressing'' in 2003, this scheme is now known as 'Rural Addressing'.
The acronym RAPID has since been applied to a project of the New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management, entitled ''Response And Preparedness In Disasters''
