I believe this is disputable. Personally, I have never used the tree row tag, I 
always mapped single trees, in a row or not, but I think there could be a sense 
in explicitly stating a tree row that goes beyond address interpolation, which 
really is redundant when the individual numbers are there. For example there 
can be anomalies like missing trees or corners where different tree rows meet, 
and an algorithm might not be able to get it right (also because information 
like tree types could be missing, a human looking at the scene would understand 
the rows because she sees more than just a binary tree or not, she will see 
age/height/color/shape (and other species related properties) and be able to 
distinguish them, even without expert knowledge like knowing the species, just 
by looking at it. A short way to tell which trees belong together (or which row 
is interrupted) would be the tree row tag.

I see no harm in having both, provided the individual trees are part of the 
tree row way.

Cheers, Martin
