Should the postal service be delivering to a sketched map? It seems like a poor use of resources, although maybe things are different in Iceland.
Falsehoods programmers believe about addresses. Not every property even has a valid address, at least not in the form that you'd expect.
Provided it gets routed to the right town in Iceland, I don't think this will take any more resources than any other letter. The postie will know the house anyway.
At least there are street names. Plenty of streets are unnamed.
Unless Iceland has a magic sorting system, trying to decipher this would significantly slow a carrier down in US.
