This profile defines an address structure that localises core concepts, including identifiers and terminology, for use in an Australian context, to specifically represent an Australian (location) address. The purpose of this profile is to provide best practice guidance on Australian address representation, where some constraint on content is desirable to guarantee the quality of an Australian address.
