This page documents Australian Road Signage and how the feature that the sign relates to is usually tagged.
Separate to this you can map each physical sign with traffic_sign=*. If using the traffic sign code ensure to prefix it with at least AU:, or if the sign is only specific to one state, then with AU:<S/T code>. For example traffic_sign=AU:R1-1.
The road sign list was originally generated from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Australia.
