Ro-md:Map Features

It has been proposed that this page or section be merged with Ro:Map Features. (Discuss)

În OpenStreetMap nu există restricții legate de numele și valoarea tag-urilor atașate obiectelor corespunzătoare. Dvs sunteți liber să alegeți orice tag cu orice nume, fie chiar compuse de dvs. Cu toate acestea, este mai convinabil de avut un set anume de obiecte și taguri atșate lor. Această pagină conține elementele de bază și tagurile corespunzătoare lor.

Dacă nu ați găsit pe această pagina un tag care să corespundă cel mai bine obiectului dvs pe hartă, vă recomandăm să vizitați pagina Proposed features. Pentru a combina nodurile și segmentele după relații comune vizitați Relations.

  • Dacă aveți nevoie de ajutor pentru a înțelege termenii de Nod/Linie/Polgon(Node/Way/Area), vizitați Elements.
  • Unele elemente a hărții sînt explicate în detalii, vizitați Feature Index.
  • Pentru a propune o iconiță nouă, folosiți pagina Proposed Icons.
  • Elementele, care cîndva erau corecte, dar utilizarea cărora nu mai este recomandată, vizitați Deprecated features.
  • Vizitați deasemenea Editing Standards and Conventions.

Note legate de rendering:

  • Utilizînd elementele de aici, nu există garanții că ele vor fi corect desneate de catre render anume, nici măcar de renderul OSM.
  • Deasemenea este foarte probabil ca multe taguri cunoscute de renderul OSM să nu fie prezente aici. Această pagina nu este înnoită cu toate tagurile suportate de render.

Tabele sînt grupate după tematică, prioritare fiind alea răspîndite.
Fiecare secțiune este un template care poate fi utilizat pentru traducerea în limba necesară.

Roads

These are the principal tags for the road network. They range from the most to least important.

highway motorway Autostadă, drum cu doua carosabile, și viteză de circulațe cu limita de jos.
motorway — este întotdeuna drum cu unisens! Din acest motiv trebuie să fie desenate ambele carosabile.
În Republica Moldova nu există asemenea drumuri(excepție poate face o mică porțiune de drum din autostrada 7A despre care nu cunosc nimic). Conform regulamentului de circulație rutieră a RM acest drum incepe cu semnul .
highway trunk Drumuri importante care nu sunt autostrăzi. Deobicei menținute de autoritățile centrale nu locale. În Republica Moldova acestea sunt: M1 M2 M3 M4 M14 M21
highway primary Drumuri Republicane care leagă între ele centrele raionale și alte orașe. Conform registrelor naționale moldovenești marcate cu litera R.
highway secondary Drumuri Locale. Aceste drumuri unesc orașele cu satele. Conform registrelor naționale moldovenești marcate cu litera L.
highway tertiary Drumuri de sat, pavate sau asfaltate.
highway unclassified Drumuri neclasificate.
highway residential Drumuri rezidențiale sau pentru acces a zonelor rezidențiale, dar care nu sunt highway clasificat sau neclasificat.
highway motorway_link Legătura între autostrăzi. Deobicei cu aceleași restricții.
highway trunk_link The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a trunk road from/to a trunk road or lower class highway.
highway primary_link The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a primary road from/to a primary road or lower class highway.

highway tertiary_link The link roads (sliproads/ramps) leading to/from a tertiary road from/to a tertiary road or lower class highway.

Special road types

highway living_street Drum unde pietonii au prioritae față de autovehicule. Copii pot să se joace în stradă. Viteza trebuie să fie extrem de mică.
highway service For access roads to, or within an industrial estate, camp site, business park, car park, alleys, etc. Can be used in conjunction with service=* to indicate the type of usage and with access=* to indicate who can use it and in what circumstances.
highway pedestrian For roads used mainly/exclusively for pedestrians in shopping and some residential areas which may allow access by motorised vehicles only for very limited periods of the day. To create a 'square' or 'plaza' create a closed way and tag as pedestrian and also with area=yes.
highway track Drumuri nepavate/neasfaltate (de uz agricol de ex.)
highway bus_guideway A busway where the vehicle guided by the way (though not a railway) and is not suitable for other traffic. Please note: this is not a normal bus lane, use access=no, psv=yes instead!
highway escape For runaway truck ramps, runaway truck lanes, emergency escape ramps, or truck arrester beds. It enables vehicles with braking failure to safely stop.
highway raceway A course or track for (motor) racing
highway road A road/way/street/motorway/etc. of unknown type. It can stand for anything ranging from a footpath to a motorway. This tag should only be used temporarily until the road/way/etc. has been properly surveyed. If you do know the road type, do not use this value, instead use one of the more specific highway=* values.
highway busway A dedicated roadway for bus rapid transit systems

Paths

highway footway For designated footpaths; i.e., mainly/exclusively for pedestrians. This includes walking tracks and gravel paths. If bicycles are allowed as well, you can indicate this by adding a bicycle=yes tag. Should not be used for paths where the primary or intended usage is unknown. Use highway=pedestrian for pedestrianised roads in shopping or residential areas and highway=track if it is usable by agricultural or similar vehicles. For ramps (sloped paths without steps), combine this tag with incline=*.
highway bridleway For horse riders. Pedestrians are usually also permitted, cyclists may be permitted depending on local rules/laws. Motor vehicles are forbidden.
highway steps For flights of steps (stairs) on footways. Use with step_count=* to indicate the number of steps
highway corridor For a hallway inside of a building.
highway path A non-specific path. Use highway=footway for paths mainly for walkers, highway=cycleway for one also usable by cyclists, highway=bridleway for ones available to horse riders as well as walkers and highway=track for ones which is passable by agriculture or similar vehicles.
highway via_ferrata A via ferrata is a route equipped with fixed cables, stemples, ladders, and bridges in order to increase ease and security for climbers. These via ferrata require equipment : climbing harness, shock absorber and two short lengths of rope, but do not require a long rope as for climbing. not rendered in OSM-Carto

When sidewalk/crosswalk is tagged as a separate way

footway sidewalk Sidewalk that runs typically along residential road. Use in combination with highway=footway or highway=path
footway crossing Crosswalk that connects two sidewalks on the opposite side of the road. Often recognized by painted markings on the road, road sign or traffic lights. Use in combination with highway=footway or highway=path. Useful information is presence of tactile_paving=*, wheelchair=* suitability and kerb=* represented as a node on the crosswalk way.

When sidewalk (or pavement) is tagged on the main roadway (see Sidewalks)

sidewalk both | left | right | no Specifies that the highways has sidewalks on both sides, on one side or no sidewalk at all

When cycleway is drawn as its own way (see Bicycle)

highway cycleway For designated cycleways. Add foot=*, though it may be avoided if default-access-restrictions do apply.

Cycleway tagged on the main roadway or lane (see Bicycle)

cycleway lane A lane is a route that lies within the roadway
cycleway opposite Used on ways with oneway=yes where it is legally permitted to cycle in both directions. Used together with oneway:bicycle=no.
cycleway opposite_lane Used on ways with oneway=yes that have a cycling lane going the opposite direction of normal traffic flow (a "contraflow" lane). Used together with oneway:bicycle=no.
cycleway track A track provides a route that is separated from traffic. In the United States, this term is often used to refer to bike lanes that are separated from lanes for cars by pavement buffers, bollards, parking lanes, and curbs. Note that a cycle track may alternatively be drawn as a separate way next to the road which is tagged as highway=cycleway.
cycleway opposite_track Used on ways with oneway=yes that have a cycling track going the opposite direction of normal traffic flow. Used together with oneway:bicycle=no.

cycleway shared_lane Cyclists share a lane with motor vehicles, but there are markings indicating that they should share the lane with motorists. In some places these markings are known as "sharrows" ('sharing arrows') and this is the tag to use for those.
busway lane Bus lane on both sides of the road. (See also: Parallel scheme for bus/psv lane tagging lanes:bus=* / lanes:psv=*)

Street parking tagged on the main roadway (see Street parking)

parking :left / :right / :both

cycleway lane Two cycle lanes, one on each side of the road. Cyclist map
cycleway:right
cycleway:left
lane A cycle lane only on one side of the road. Left or right depend on the direction in which the way is drawn in OpenStreetMap. Cyclist map
cycleway opposite Used on ways with oneway=yes where it is permitted to cycle in both directions.

Note - such streets are common in Belgium, the Netherlands and Denmark, for example, but are rare in the UK (although they do exist): often, instead, actually the street is two-way as normal for its whole length except for the very short section past the no-entry sign at the end, where cycles are excepted from the no-entry by means of a short lane separated by an island. This is called a "cycle plug". In some places this has been represented as very short oneway Way at the end with an adjacent cycleway, forming a little triangle with the road they join to, or sometimes with a short oneway Way with cycleway=opposite_lane or opposite_track.

Tracks

railway abandoned The course of a former railway which has been abandoned and the track removed. The course is still recognized through embankments, cuttings, tree rows, bridges, tunnels, remaining track ties, building shapes and rolling or straight ways. For demolished rails that are no longer identifiable, e.g. that have been built over, some use the highly questionable railway=razed. Not rendered by osm-carto
railway construction Railway under construction.
railway disused A section of railway which is no longer used but where the track and infrastructure remains in place. The track is likely overgrown with endemic vegetation, but could be brought back into useful service with only minor effort.
railway funicular Cable driven inclined railways on a steep slope, with a pair of cars connected by one cable
railway light_rail A higher-standard tram system, normally in its own right-of-way. Often it connects towns and thus reaches a considerable length (tens of kilometres).
railway miniature Miniature railways are narrower than narrow gauge and carry passengers, frequently at an exact scale of "standard-sized" rail (for example "1/4 scale"). They can often be found in parks.
railway monorail A railway with only a single rail. A monorail can run above the rail like in Las Vegas and Disneyland or can suspend below the rail like the Wuppertal Schwebebahn (Germany).
railway narrow_gauge Narrow-gauge passenger or freight trains. Narrow gauge railways can have mainline railway service like the Rhaetian Railway in Switzerland or can be a small light industrial railway. Use gauge=* to specify the actual width of rails in mm.
railway preserved This is the old tag for historic trains. Use railway:preserved=yes for historical railway instead.
railway rail Full sized passenger or freight trains in the standard gauge for the country or state.
railway subway A city passenger rail service running mostly grade separated (see Wikipedia:rapid transit). Often a significant portion of the line or its system/network is underground.
railway tram One or two carriage rail vehicles, usually sharing motor road, sometimes called "street running" (Other languages).

public_transport platform This is parallel to the rail line for showing where the actual platforms are. It is also to know where you can change platform and enter the station, so use footpaths to connect them. This is really useful for routing too. Use only if the platform is served by public transport.

Common landuse key values - developed land

landuse commercial Predominantly commercial businesses and their offices. Commercial businesses which sell goods should be categorised as landuse=retail. Commercial businesses can sell services on site and may include private Doctor's Surgeries, and those non-government services for mental and physical health, such as a Counselor's or Physiotherapist's practice or Veterinary. Commercial businesses can also include office buildings and business parks which have limited interface with the public and sell their services either on site, or externally. Commercial businesses have low amounts of public foot traffic.

Government services and businesses predominantly mapped as commercial too and used as such by data consumers! See more information on operator:type to set it as government to distinguish from private or others.
civic_admin is an abandoned proposal, civic has no documentation, institutional is to ambiguous and all three only find minimal support in the mapping community.


landuse construction A site which is under active development and construction of a building or structure, including any purposeful alteration to the land or vegetation upon it. Abandoned construction projects and sites should not use this tag.
landuse education An area predominately used for educational purposes/facilities.
landuse fairground A site where the fair takes place
landuse industrial Predominantly industrial landuses such as workshops, factories, or warehouses.
landuse residential Land where people reside; predominantly residential detached (single houses, grouped dwellings), or attached (apartments, flats, units) dwellings. For "Mixed-Use" areas where more than half of the land is residential, tag as residential.
landuse retail Predominantly retail businesses such as shops. Retail businesses sell physical goods such as food (prepared or grocery), clothing, medicine, stationary, appliances, tools, or other similar physical items. Retail businesses have high amounts of public foot traffic. Retail businesses do not exclusively provide or sell their services. For businesses which sell services see landuse=commercial.

Generally a member of the public could freely walk into and access a retail business. Retail is a subset of commercial, but should be used and treated as mutually exclusive in OpenStreetMap.

landuse institutional Land used for institutional purposes, see  Institution (disambiguation). Institutional land may include buildings like an office=government, office=ngo, office=association, amenity=social_facility and their associated infrastructure (car parks, service roads, yards and so-on)

The meaning of this tag is ambiguous and unclear. Consider using another tag that better describes the object. For instance landuse=commercial. See talk page for discussion.

boundary administrative An administrative boundary. Subdivisions of areas/territories/jurisdictions recognised by governments or other organisations for administrative purposes. These range from large groups of nation states right down to small administrative districts and suburbs, as indicated by the 'admin_level=*' combo tag.
boundary border_zone A border zone is an area near the border where special restrictions on movement apply. Usually a permit is required for visiting.
boundary forest A delimited forest is a land which is predominantly wooded and which is, for this reason, given defined boundaries. It may cover different tree stands, non-wooded areas, highways… but all the area within the boundaries are considered and managed as a single forest.
boundary forest_compartment A forest compartment is a numbered sub-division within a delimited forest, physically materialized with visible, typically cleared, boundaries.
boundary hazard A designated hazardous area, with a potential source of damage to health, life, property, or any other interest of value.
boundary maritime Maritime boundaries which are not administrative boundaries: the Baseline, Contiguous Zone and EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone).
boundary marker A boundary marker, border marker, boundary stone, or border stone is a robust physical marker that identifies the start of a land boundary or the change in a boundary, especially a change in direction of a boundary. See also historic=boundary_stone
boundary national_park Area of outstanding natural beauty, set aside for conservation and for recreation (Other languages).
boundary place boundary=place is commonly used to map the boundaries of a place=*, when these boundaries can be defined but these are not administrative boundaries.
boundary political Electoral boundaries
boundary postal_code Postal code boundaries
boundary protected_area Protected areas, such as for national parks, marine protection areas, heritage sites, wilderness, cultural assets and similar.
boundary special_economic_zone A government-defined area in which business and trade laws are different.
boundary disputed An area of landed claimed by two or more parties (use with caution). See also Disputed territories.
boundary user defined All commonly used values according to Taginfo

Attributes

admin_level (number) Applies to boundary=administrative and is usually in the range 1 to 10, except for several countries (Bolivia, Germany, Mozambique, Netherlands, Philippines, Poland, Turkmenistan, Venezuela) where it is in the range 1 to 11 – see boundary.
border_type * To distinguish between types of boundary where admin_level isn't enough. Used in several different ways e.g in maritime contexts.
start_date (date) Useful if the boundary is very recent (or if it will become effective in a near future).

Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". The common default name. Notes:
  • For disputed areas, please use the name as displayed on, e.g., street signs for the name tag
  • Put all alternatives into either localized name tags (e.g., name:tr/name:el) or the variants (e.g., loc_name/old_name/alt_name)
  • Do not abbreviate words: abbreviations
name:<lg> User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Name in different language; e.g., name:fr=Londres. Note that all key variants below can use a language suffix.

Used when a way has different names for different sides (e.g., a street that's forming the boundary between two municipalities).
int_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". International name. Consider using language specific names instead; e.g., name:en=.... International does not (necessarily) mean English. It is used to give the name transliterated to Latin script in Belarus, Bulgaria, Greece, Kazakhstan and Northern Macedonia
loc_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Local name.

official_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Official name. Useful where there is some elaborate official name, while a different one is a common name typically used. Example: official_name=Principat d'Andorra (where "name" is name=Andorra).
old_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Historical/old name, still in some use.

short_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Should be a recognizable commonly-used short version of the name, not a nickname (use alt_name for that), useful for searching (recognized by Nominatim).
sorting_name[:<lg>] User defined Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Name, used for correct sorting of names — This is only needed when sorting names cannot be based only on their orthography (using the Unicode Collation Algorithm with collation tables tailored by language and script, or when sorted lists of names are including names written in multiple languages and/or scripts) but requires ignoring some parts such as:
  • ignoring leading articles, or
  • lowering the relative importance of first names cited before a last name,
  • ignoring the generic part of a street name when it occurs before the specific name (e.g., in French with "rue", "boulevard", "place", etc.),

all of them being ignored at the primary sort level and not easily inferable by a preprocessing algorithm.

Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24". Alternative name by which the feature is known. If there is a name that does not fit in any of the above keys, alt_name can be used; e.g., name=Field Fare Road and alt_name=Fieldfare Road, or name=University Centre and alt_name=Grad Pad. In rare cases, the key is used for multiple semicolon-separated names; e.g. alt_name=name1;name2;name3, but this usage is not preferred.
