Binubuod ng pahinang ito ang mga alituntunin ukol sa pagmamapa para sa Pilipinas. Kung maari man, dapat sumunod ang pagmamapa at pagta-tag sa mga alituntunin ng kabuuan ng mga nagmamapa sa OpenStreetMap, na ipinapakita sa Mga Tampok sa Mapa, Indeks ng mga Tampok, and Panuntunan at Patakaran sa Pag-eedit. Kung kailangan ng mga alintuntunin na ito ng paliwanag sa konteksto ng Pilipinas, dinodokumento ng pahinang ito ang mga alituntunin iyon, na pinagkasunduan ng WikiProject Pilipinas.

Pangunahing mga kalsada na nagdudugtong ng mga probonsya at pangunahing mga lungsod:

eg.

-Asian Highway Network AH26
-Daang Maharlika N1
-C5 Road N11
-JASA (GSO Road) N3
-Manila East Road N601

Major Road that complements nearby trunk road to provide access to all town centers:
  • Typically referring to the town's or city's Camino Real or main road
  • Usually passes near or through the town proper or poblacion
Minor Arterial Roads:
  • An alternate road that complements the function of the town's primary road; which can be as wide or as busy as the primary road it supports
  • Long series of non-primary-class road/s connecting 3 or more barangays.
  • A promoted tertiary-class road, that feeds substantial traffic to/from other tertiary road branches.
Collector Roads:
  • Barangay Road
  • Inter-Neighborhood Roads:
-Essential (series of) minor roads that connect 2 or more neighborhoods
-Inter-Purok/Inter-Subdivision Roads (including permissive-private roads)

Any Mix-Use Non-Tertiary Non-Residential Road

eg.

-Commercial-Residential Road
-Industrial Roads
-Roads in Central Business Districts
Any Paved, Unpaved or Matured-Dirt Road in a Residential Area
passable using AUV or jeepney-size vehicle

Redefined Living_Street: where jaywalking is the rule rather than the exception.

- People-filled road NOT officially closed to traffic (but allows residents & delivery services to pass);
- Where LGU permanently tolerates/permits street-commerce, social or tourism activities;
- Where people are allowed to hang-out, party, walk or do business in the middle of the road;
- Where motorists should drive through the crowd, cautiously at crawling speed.

eg.

-Ilaya St.(Divisoria)
-Notorious streets with frequent/disruptive unannounced total-closure for community activities or flea market.

REVERSE-EXCEPTION:
When NOT to tag as living_street, especially by remote mappers

- Where after-school hours, children are tolerated to play in the middle of the street for lack of playground
- Numerous PH Narrow Roads (eg.3-4 meters wide) where people are forced to jaywalk for lack of sidewalk
Special access roads with specific function:
  • Utility service alleys
  • Cemetery roads
  • Parking-aisles
  • Alleyways
  • Driveways
  • Narrow single-track Farm-Access Roads & Irrigation Roads, with no Passing Place (or space for another vehicle to give way or overtake)
4x4 Mountain/Farmland Trail Roads
- Rough, muddy or slippery road, and NOT-PASSABLE to AUV
Temporary-Access Non-Matured Dirt Roads crossing raw lands and remote non-populated area
- Viewed on satellite images as seldom-used dirt road (multiple-paths or not so well-defined road edges);
- May cross rivers (ford), or sand or rough terrain (temporary or ever-changing paths)

NOTE:
What should NOT be tagged highway=track?

  • Critical Road Link of Rural & Remote Barangays, PASSABLE to any non-4x4 Jeepney
  • Matured Dirt Road, not yet paved, but is passable to AUV and alikes.
  • Deteriorated/Damaged road, not yet fixed, yet remain passable to AUV and alikes.
  • Re-purposed or Mix-Use Farm-Access Dirt Road
- Those serving as the lifeline or critical-link to an isolated Sitio.


Access

Using barriers to identify appropriate restrictive access for roads

Note: Do not tag access=private to private roads inside gated communities or subdivisions as this destroys routability. Instead create a barrier along the way which has its appropriate access tag. barrier=lift_gate if the impediment is a Lift Gate
barrier=gate if the impediment is a Gate.

Value Description
private Private individual property access
no Access is not allowed.
permissive Open if only permitted (usually on gated communities).

Mga pangalan

Mahahalagang mga tag para sa mga pangalan:

Karaniwang pangalan (tag: name=*)

  • Ito ang karaniwang teksto na makikita sa karamihan ng mga mapa.
Pangunahing gabay sa mga karaniwang mga pangalan:
  • dapat laman lamang nito ang karaniwang ginagamit, at opisyal na tinatanggap na maikling pangalan.
  • iwasan gamitin ang buong pangalang opisyal (Ingles: official name), kung may mas katangap-tangap/karaniwang ginagamit na maikling pangalan.
  • HINDI dapat kasama sa pangalan ang klasipikasyon (hal. sa mga pangalan ng lugar), maliban sa ilang pagkakataon.
  • HINDI dapat ito nagpapakita ng paglalarawan/deskripsiyon (hal. rice field/taniman ng palay, fish pond/palaisdaan, pangalan ng mga branch/sangay, atbp.)
  • WALA dapat itong mga text comments.
  • di dapat nito katumbas ang akronim (kung naangkop), maliban kung ang sinasabing akronim ay naging karaniwan at ginamit na sa lahat ng mga signboard/karatula.
  • di kailangan nito maging ang buong pangalang opisyal (maliban kapag angofficial_name = ang karaniwang pangalan)
  • di kailangan nitong sumunod sa pangalang ginagamit sa karaniwang usapan (hal. Mcdo).
Para sa pangalan sa karaniwang usapan, gamitin ang alt_name=*
  • Dapat kapareho ng mga nasa opisyal na mga talaan/rekord ang pangalan:
-Kung maaari, gumamit ng <enye> ñ sa halip ng 'n' kung saan ito naangkop, hal. Santo Niño, Parañaque, atbp.
Madaling Tip:
Gamitin ang Alt-<164> sa numeric keypad para i-type ang "ñ", o i-Google ang "enye" tapos i-cut at paste
-Mga pinaikling titulo/taguri ng mga tao sa umpisa ng pangalan:
hal. "Sto." at "Santo"; "Sta." at "Santa"; "St." at "Saint"; atbp.
Madaling tip:
Huwag asahan agad ang nakasulat sa mga signboard/karatula!
Kung nagdududa (tulad sa mga signboard/karatula na nagsasabi ng magkaiba), hanapin ang mga luma o opisyal na mga rekord (o ang bagong katangap-tangap na pagbabaybay/ispeling)
o, sundin kung ano ang sinasabi ng mga heritage advocates o mga makalumang mga residente.
Bakit gumamit ng (pinaikling) mga karaniwang pangalan sa mga mapa?:
  • Ang katotohanan: Ang mga nakasulat sa mapa ay laging inilalagay sa napakaimportanteng mga linya & hugis.
-Ang ibig sabihin ng paggamit ng mga pinaikling mga nakasulat na opisyal na tinatanggap ay - mas maraming linya at hugis; mas maraming pangalan ang pwedeng maipakita.
-Ang mga paulit-ulit na mga salita sa unahan o dulong bahagi ng pangalan, ay lalong nagpapapuno ng mga di-kinakailangang mga "pampakalat" sa mapa at ibang di-mahalagang impormasyon.
-Ang mga paulit-ulit na mga salitang inilalagay sa unahan ng pangalan para ilarawan ito ay nakakaapekto sa pagkakasunod-sunod ng pangalan.
  • Practical limitations of the current technology, and the lack of an (all-inclusive) universal rules for prefix/suffix abbreviations:
-Names are rendered live 'as-is' by default. Doing live
-For most simple universal offline-maps, no post-processing of name data is done for lack an established all-inclusive rules for abbreviating prefixes/suffixes. Every region, every country has their own rules.
-Without post-processing, adding unofficial prefixes complicates sorting order (eg. list of places, map index)

Official Name (tag: official_name=*)

  • the official long-spelling version of the name
  • typically legislated names (in cases of place_names or road_names)
  • referring to the original name, if a shop or amenity decided to re-brand itself using its Acronym
eg. Kentucky Fried Chicken, Banco de Oro, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, Bank of Philippine Islands, etc.

Acronym (tag: short_name=*})

  • is the official acronym
  • if acronym is used as its 'brand name' (as seen on signboards & marketing ads), then name=short_name
eg. KFC, BDO, HSBC, BPI, etc.

Alternate Name, Colloquial/Informal Names (tag: alt_name=*)

Old Name (tag: old_name=*)

Good Practices
Place Names
General Rule When & Why Exception Example
-Remove suffix: *** City
-Remove prefix: City of ***
-Do not use city_names with descriptive words
City can be differentiated from a Town in the place tag:
place=city
place=town
City with a similarly-named Province

"Baguio City" > "Baguio
"City of Manila" > "Manila"
"Science City of Muñoz" > "Muñoz" (see wiki entry)
"Island Garden City of Samal" > "Samal" (see wiki entry)

Add suffix City for cities where a similarly-named province exist
*In a written postal addresses (no indicated zip code), the City's name may still be considered a valid entry (without mentioning province); BUT this can be confused with a similarly-named province.
*For this case, manually adding the suffix City becomes practical and necessary, since it improves human recognition (place association) in both the maps and mails

Quezon City vs Quezon Province
Cebu City vs Cebu Province
Isabela City vs Isabela Province
Tarlac City vs Tarlac Province

Remove prefix Barangay if name has Alphanumeric characters Barangay San Isidro > "San Isidro"
Remove prefix Barangay if name is Numeric,
For small city-barangays where land-area, clustered per Zone or per District
The redundant descriptive-text on map is discouraged.

Note:
Text clutter-issue unique to PH villages can only be addressed by the manually (on case to case basis)
Barangay 26" > "26" (see Caloocan City's barangays on map)
Remove prefix Sitio
(where after investigation, there are observed pattern of unofficial use by residents)
Observed in PH:
-unofficially added prefix Sitio to indicate it's a neighborhood.
-Added Sitio to make the place_name sound better (or sosyal), unofficially renaming their place (inconsistent with govt registry)
-Added prefix Sitio to give impression that the place is a long-established neighborhood or appear older than they actually are, (common in newly formed neighborhood associations and informal-settlers)
-Affects sorting order in the index
Where said Sitio has matured (and become integral part of a place_name after decades of use), and in fact entered into the official place_name registry, then leave the prefix Sitio as it is

Sitio Lagundi" > "Lagundi"

Drop suffix 'Subdivision'
(if the shortened version can stand on its on, and in fact generally used as seen on signboards)
*All neighborhoods (sitio, compounds, gated-communities, etc) in existence were actually the result of land consolidations & subdivisions, thus the descriptive name: subdivision.
*The redundant, generic and meaningless suffix Subdivision was used as a marketing word back when the days it sounded "sosyal" to live in a gated-community project, until said suffix was replaced by more upscale-sounding words;

*Being an unnecessary descriptive word, many already dropped the word "subdivision" from their signboards
Cases where the place_name is too short to stand on it's own (to be recognized as a gated community) Eg. Noel's Subdivision, etc.
Roads Names:
  • Issue in the Philippines/Consideration for the developing world
-Some road names have excessive number of character length (cannot fit on street sign to remain readable from a distance)
-There are standards laid for street name signs, fonts, and permitted abbreviations (published by the Department of Public Works and Highways, in the Road Safety Manuals: Part 2 - Road Signs and Pavement Markings), but most local government units still do not adapt the standard, and variations on street signs still exist. DPWH District Engineering Offices (DEOs), though they adopted the standard for road signs, may have varying designs and specifications for road name signs by jurisdiction.
-No offered solution (at the moment) to post-process OSM street names to minimize information clutter for live_rendering and simple map apps
-Applying OSM's no-abbreviation rule will further complicate the maximum_length issue of street names
  • By tolerance, Philippines mappers choose non-standard solutions to map clutter:
(1) use street suffixes (as seen exactly on street sign)
(2) abbreviate the prefix/suffixes (as seen on street signs)
(3) follow the OSM no-abbreviation rule on suffixes
Shops & Amenities:
-use plain brand_names. do not add branch_name:
Eg. Jollibee, 7-Eleven, Metrobank, BDO, Mercury Drug, Petron, Caltex
Exception for large-land-footprint Malls & Supermarkets (where branch is integral part of name as printed on signboard)
Eg. SM City Baguio, SM City Manila, Puregold Cainta-Junction, etc.

Bridges and Tunnels

Bridges and Tunnel names must be placed in a tag bridge:name=* and tunnel:name=* respectively. While the name=* tag must take the name of the road.
Exemption: If the bridge or tunnel is a historical landmark then their names can be placed directly on the name tag (e.g. Imus Bridge - site of the Battle of Imus in 1896)

Kilometer Markers/Pylons

highway=milestone, name=* name must be KMXXX where XXX is the kilometer value of the pylon. distance=* is the number of kilometers distance from KM 0 at Luneta Park (previously pk=*)

Administrative boundaries

admin_level=
Country 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Philippines N/A National Border Regions Provinces Sangguniang Panlalawigan districts (if any) Cities and Municipalities/Towns Sangguniang Panlungsod/Bayan districts (if any) Other administrative districts (if any) Zones (if any) Barangays Sitios/Puroks (if any, but only if boundaries are defined)
  • Use relations for tagging administrative boundaries, discussions here and here

Relation tags:

Barangay names

tag them as:

Do not add the word Barangay in the name tag, i. e.: name=Matandang Balara, not name=Barangay Matandang Balara

Sitio/purok names

tag them as:

Do not add Sitio on the name, i.e.: name=Duluhan, not name=Sitio Duluhan, except when "Sitio" is very vital to the name and commonly used.

Puroks are usually numbered, and the "Purok" prefix is mainly vital to the name and prevents confusion with numbered barangay, so, it should be included.

Town Hall Naming

Political division Tags used Example
Cities amenity=townhall; name=<name of city> City Hall; townhall:type=city Baguio City Hall
Municipalities/Towns amenity=townhall; name=<name of municipality> Municipal Hall; townhall:type=town Silang Municipal Hall, Cavite
Barangays amenity=townhall; name=<name of barangay> Barangay Hall; townhall:type=village West Triangle Barangay Hall, Quezon City
Barangays whose names are numbers amenity=townhall; name=Barangay <number of barangay> Hall; townhall:type=village Barangay 8 Hall, Pasay City

Notes and links: Tag:amenity=townhall
Remark: A amenity=townhall POI will not appear on the standard osm map. A polygon will appear.

Education

For recommended tagging for schools, especially public schools, see Philippines/Mapping conventions/Education.

Philippines-specific tags for amenities, shops and other POI's

This portion documents map features that mostly apply to the Philippines. As general rule, we always adapt what is contained in the Map Features. In cases where we cannot find a similar match, we used this as a guide.

Instead of strictly categorizing tags with similar keys eg. amenity, shop, tourism..., we are experimenting on a fuzzy definition of grouping "closely-related tags" either by industry, by interest, or relevance to particular groups of mappers etc., in order to develop a more intuitive OSM PH-tagging guide. This experimental grouping hopes to aid new mappers to identify small/minor differences (in element/s) among and between two or more closely-related, similarly-named or ambiguous, rarely-used, fairly-new, or uniquely-PH-only tags.

Some key-values are also given familiar brand-name examples found in PH. This is NOT to promote or advertise any establishments mentioned, but to train the brain for quick association and visualization of the tags' typical and real-world counterparts in the Philippines. This may also help in discussions where there are conflicts of interpretations, or personal biases over which tag/s should represent what.

New mappers can have an option to study a few but relevant closely-related tags, based on their particular interests, lessening the danger of using unrelated or erroneous tags, shortening the learning curve.
