ABSTRACT:
A data processing method and system are disclosed to provide active pigeon hole sorting for mail pieces in a postal system. The method is based upon the receipt of deferred optical character recognition statistics for mail pieces in transit to a destination postal region. An ordered list of addressees is compiled from the DOCR statistics. From this ordered list, the sorting case for sorting the mail is partitioned to eliminate pigeon holes for those postal recipients not receiving mail on that day. Still further, the pigeon holes in the sorting case are actively indicated with a prompting light to facilitate the operator physically sorting the mail piece down to delivery sequence. The assignment of delivery stops to pigeon holes is also developed so as to designate adjacent pigeon holes based on the carrier walk without regard to street number but rather to reflect geographic juxtaposition.
