Description
The value of this tag is a namespace for country-specific values of all the railway:signal:* tags that describe the signal.
With this tagging scheme, the prefix is specified only once using this tag and implicitly prepended to any country-specific values, making the describing tags easier to read.
A namespace, like a prefix, is composed of a two-letter country code (ISO_3166-1) optionally followed by some country-specific values (e.g. DE-ESO, AT-V2, FR).
This tagging scheme is optional and does not replace the existing tagging scheme with prefixed values.
Examples
Without using the prefix tag
In Germany:
- railway=signal
- ref=51VA
- railway:signal:direction=forward
- railway:signal:position=right
- railway:signal:distant=DE-ESO:ks
- railway:signal:distant:form=light
- railway:signal:distant:height=normal
- railway:signal:distant:states=DE-ESO:ks1;DE-ESO:ks2
In Austria:
- railway=signal
- ref=H503
- railway:signal:direction=backward
- railway:signal:position=right
- railway:signal:main=AT-V2:hauptsignal
- railway:signal:main:form=light
- railway:signal:main:states=AT-V2:halt;AT-V2:frei;AT-V2:frei_mit_60
- railway:signal:main:function=exit
