[talk-au] Rural Addresses in WA

[Andrew Harvey]

That's just addr:interpolation
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key:addr&uselang=en#Tags_for_interpolation_ways
usually done as a quick way to map addresses along a street, but still it
would be more accurate to map each address individually. I guess you could
use that for linear addressing schemes, but I don't think it was designed
for it.
