4 GIATA MultiCodes Clearly identifying and updating master data for hotels are indispensable aspects of internal and external communication, particularly when dealing with large amounts of data and in collaboration with multiple suppliers. In order to respond to these complex demands, GIATA has compiled the GIATA MultiCodes database, which comprises the GIATA Codes, Broker and Tour Operator Codes and GIATA GeoCodes modules, as well as GIATA Hotel Addresses and Affiliations to Chains or Groups. GIATA Codes GIATA Codes clearly identify over 371,000 specific hotels/hotel complexes, including details of the location and country, and assign a unique GIATA ID to every single hotel/hotel complex. This ensures that every property, regardless of different spellings, duplicate listings and changes in company trading names, can always be clearly identified. Broker and Tour Operator Codes Along with the clear identification of hotels, this optional module currently provides more than 11 million booking codes of over 390 tour operators and hotel brokers (GTA, Sabre, Hotelbeds, Tourico, Amadeus and many more). It can also provide booking codes of additional sales and content partners (Expedia, Agoda, Zoover and many more) upon request. We recommend our MultiCodes product video in HD on Youtube. Just scan the QR Code with your smartphone. Affiliation to a hotel chain or group This optional module currently stores the hotel chain or group affiliation of around 68,500 hotels. GIATA Geocodes GIATA Geocodes are latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates, which are regularly checked manually, of over 342,000 hotels in the most commonly booked destinations. The information provided includes details such as the street number, street, district or town/city (sometimes interpolated).
