<p>If you need a use case for OpenLocationCode, the Brazilian community are trying to help municipalities to create rural addresses databases and using an open geocode format seems the way to go.</p>
<p>It was already tried to create local geocoding systems (see <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOiEUlvRVeI" rel="nofollow">GPS Caipira</a>, in Portuguese) but they lack integration with different software platforms.</p>
<p>It would be really helpful if OpenStreetMap site supported URLs with OpenLocationCodes so we could direct OLC users to OSM instead of a proprietary map.</p>
