Key Name: surface
Applying to Map Features type: Propeties/Namespace
Core values
surface=paved - A highway feature is predominantly sealed along its length, i.e. it is covered with paving stones, concrete or bitumen.
surface=cobblestone - A highway feature predominantly consists out of cobblestone.
surface=unpaved - A highway feature is predominantly unsealed along its length, i.e. it has a loose covering ranging from compacted stone chippings to earth.
Default: If the tag is not present, it should be assumed surface=paved for all highway types except highway=footway.
User Defined values
Not applicable.
Notes:
The term paved/unpaved road is used in the UK, the term sealed/unsealed road is generally used elsewhere.
Navigation software should assume that unsealed roads will have slower driving time and may be impassable in some weather conditions.
Mapping software convention varies, but generally unsealed roads are shown in a different colour but same width as their sealed cousins or be the same colour but dashed.
