What3Words.com = commercial, not able to include in this project Uses a huge wordlist and 3 words gets you down to around 3m x 3m.

WhatFreeWords = open-source, but DMCA'd to death Uses a completely different word list but the algorithm is similar to What3Words and gets you down to 3m x 3m.

WhereWords - Similar to What3Words, still a work in progress? Uses 4096 entry wordlist, 4 words gets you to about 2m by 2m

FixPhrase is another, similar system. Accuracy down to 11 meters, but the words can be jumbled and still work.
