Australian Tagging Guidelines/Road Signage

From OpenStreetMap Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This page documents Australian Road Signage and how the feature that the sign relates to is usually tagged. Separate to this you can map each physical sign with traffic_sign=*.

The road sign list was originally generated from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Australia.

Tip: You can link directly to a specific sign by using the traffic_sign code as the anchor. For example Australian Tagging Guidelines/Road Signage#R1-1.
