 Priority:  medium       |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.0.0
Component:  postgis      |     Version:  trunk        
 Keywords:  tiger        |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Given a PostGIS long/lat WGS 84/NAD 80 geometry point, return an
 approximate street address (reverse interpolating along the edges and
 street address ranges).

 This will be useful for example managing fleets of cars or emergency
 response when you get back a long lat from GPS devices, but don't know
 where that is along your road networks.
