addr:interpolation=*:

Use case: connecting address node 42 with address node 50A, along this side there are ten front doors, alternatingly numbered 42 / 42A / 44 etc.

Problem: intermediate addresses like 44A or 46red aren't found,

Solution: draw a second set of address nodes for -in this instance- the 'A'-numbers, offset from the non-suffixed nodes and their associated addr:interpolation line, stagger begin and end node placement along the street so they will be at the approximate location of those front doors.

Note: in this case, addr:interpolation=* gives a good approximation to find front doors which are close together, similarly spaced, but without visual clue on aerial photos or land registry where those doors would be, a multi-band / multi-freq. GNSS didn't yield usable results in this minor 'urban canyon'.

width:official=*

On a Belgian bulletin board, user Luna asked for input on width=* where the stated minimum width of a right of way differs from the measured width;

From the post on Tuesday 10 June 2025 : "I've been using width=* for the actual width of the path and width:official=* for the theoretical width displayed on the sign. This is not an established tagging scheme, but there is none, really. So, anyone got ideas or remarks about tagging these widths?"

Several members replied, there were no objections hence width:official=* is now documented here to be tried as a semi-official Belgian additional tag, subject to any better suggestions yet to be received. .
