Discussion and communication

Forum

The Israel users forum is the main communication method. English only. Sign in with your OpenStreetMap DB account.

Mailing list

Talk-il is a mailing list for discussions about mapping Israel, and for easy communication between mappers from Israel. English & Hebrew are allowed. The list is not as active as the forum, but it may still be useful especially for those who do not have an OSM account.

Talk page

The talk page can be used for communication, but the forum is more active.

IRC

irc://irc.oftc.net #osm-il

Telegram

The telegram group is great for quick questions, mainly in Hebrew but English is okay too.

Conventions and guidelines

This section covers conventions and guidelines. Note that there are also additional guidelines for hiking and biking trails in the next section.

Naming

  • name=* and name:=* tags:
    1. The name=* tag should be used as the primary name, given in the language most common in the area. The name=* tag contains the name only in that common language.
    2. Additionally, the name should be stated using name:=* tags:
      1. A name:=* tag in the same language as the name=* tag.
      2. name:=* tags stating the name in other languages.
        • Use name:he=* for Hebrew
        • Use name:en=* for English (prefer the exact spelling as it is on the street sign)
        • Use name:ar=* for Arabic
        • Use name:ru=* for Russian
        • Use name:am=* for Amharic
    For example, the city of relation Tel Aviv-Yafo has its main name as name=תל אביב-יפו and name:he=תל אביב-יפו in Hebrew, as well as name:en=Tel Aviv-Yafo, name:ar=تل أبيب-يافا and several other languages. The run of a bot will copy the name value from name=* to name:he=* or name:ar=*.
  • Add the full name written on the sign without including "rehov", "street", etc.
  • Do not use abbreviations, leave that for rendering.
  • Many streets in Arab or Druze villages do not have an official name. If there's a de-facto name, use it. Otherwise leave it blank. Do not make up a name yourself. Note that bus-stop names do not necessarily reflect the street name in such areas.

Inter-city roads

  • First rule for numbered roads: The category is determined by the color of the sign, not by the number of digits!
  • Different sections with the same road number can have different categories.
  • Speed limits stated below are the defaults by law, though can be altered in a specific road section by a "special speed limit" sign.
Key Value Element Description Color Example sign Default speed limit Key:ref tag on way Remark
highway motorway way All freeways - National and Inter-City roads Blue ISR-FW-6.svg ISR-FW-20.svg ISR-FW-431.svg 110 km/h mandatory for all highway=motorway Usually a single-digit road number (e.g. road 2) or a double-digit road number (e.g. road 20). Mapnik color: Blue.

Motorways mostly have an Dálnice sign at the entrances, but not necessarily.

highway trunk way National roads Red ISR-HW-3.svg ISR-HW-10.svg 100 km/h mandatory for all highway=trunk (including roundabout) Expressways / trunk in Israel can look very much like a freeway. Many of them have double-digit road number (e.g. road 10). Mapnik color: Green
highway primary way All regional roads Green ISR-HW-293.svg ISR-HW-864.svg 90 km/h mandatory for all highway=primary (including roundabout) Many of them have triple-digit road number (e.g. road 412). Mapnik color: Red
highway secondary way All regional roads Black ISR-HW-3631.svg 80 km/h only if exist Many of them have quadruple-digit road number (e.g. road 4111) and priority over other crossing roads (i.e. crossing drivers encounter a stop sign).

Exception for the priority rule: unnumbered roads that are important for routing connections may have crossing priority over secondary roads. Mapnik color: Orange

highway tertiary way important (connection-) roads not numbered and without a colored sign no sign 80 km/h no Priority over other crossing roads (crossing drivers encounter a stop sign). Main roads inside cities are tertiary. Mapnik color: Yellow

Other road types

Also see next section for trails conventions.

Hampshire gates are quite common in Israel on both hiking trails and general-use unpaved tracks in non-urban areas.

TBA TBA
barrier stile node A stile allows pedestrians to cross "over" or "through" a wall or fence, but never actually "opens" the barrier.

In Israel, the most common type of stile seen on hiking paths is a narrow passage between metal rods/tubes, triangular in plan (like this: ———<———; an example can be seen here or here). This kind of stile should be mapped with stile=squeezer and material=metal.

Another common type looks like a small rounded "bridge" (example); these should be mapped with stile=stepover and material=metal.

TBA TBA
barrier fence way A freestanding structure designed to restrict or prevent movement across a boundary, generally distinguished from a wall by the lightness of its construction. TBA TBA
barrier wall way area A freestanding structure, designed to restrict or prevent movement across a boundary, typically made from solid brick, concrete or rocks, and almost always built so that it is opaque to vision. TBA TBA

Key Value Element Description Hiking map rendering Cycling map rendering
waterway stream way relation A naturally-forming waterway that is too narrow to be classed as a river. For an intermittent stream add intermittent=yes. TBA TBA
landuse reservoir node area There was considerable confusion whether landuse=reservoir is deprecated, but it turned out to be not deprecated and landuse=reservoir is used much wider than "new" way natural=water + water=reservoir. It may be a good idea to tag the actual water body with natural=water + water=reservoir in addition or instead of landuse=reservoir. See also the approved water details proposal and pointers to discussion on talk page. For an intermittent reservoir add intermittent=yes. TBA TBA
שטח הצפה יבש TBA TBA
natural waterhole node A depression in which water collects, especially one where wild animals come to drink. TBA TBA
man_made water_well node A structural facility to access ground water. TBA TBA

man_made water_tower node area Water tower TBA TBA

Places

See also: Places (lists and features of interest)

A place should have a node and a polygon.

The node tells the renderer where to draw the name of the place. It also should have all the tags related to the place, like population, wikipedia, etc. It should have all the various names with different spelling, e.g. name, name:en, name* and name:* tags.

The polygon should only have the following tags:

  • landuse=residential
  • place=*
  • name tags

All the other tags belong to the node. A place often has a related administrative boundary, too.

For neighborhoods a polygon isn't always used and a node can be sufficient.

Administrative boundaries

See also: Major boundaries (lists and features of interest)

The boundary=administrative tag is used on ways or relations to separate districts, cities, etc. Below is Israel-specific rules for the admin_level of the boundary.

Municipalities

See also: Lists and features of interest - places

Thanks to the MOIN Import. We are able to map townhalls, local municipalities, and regional municipalities.

A municipality should have a relation with one node with role admin_centre, and one or more ways, to form closed polygon(s).

The relation should have the following tags:

The nodeadmin_centre node should be a place node, or an amenity=townhall node in the case of a regional council.

The ways that comprise the polygon that are sourced from the MOIN import should have the following tags:

  • admin_level=8
  • boundary=administrative
  • date=08/2010
  • source=MOIN

Nature reserves

Because Nature Reserves are governed by law they are tagged as boundary=protected_area and the following tags:

National parks

Because National Parks are governed by law they are tagged as boundary=protected_area and the following tags:

Conventions for hiking and biking trails

See also: Trails (lists and features of interest)

For some general info see Walking Routes and cycle routes. Specific information about Israel can be found on Wikipedia and here (both in Hebrew).

A trail is represented by one or several ways way, all belonging to the trail's relation relation. Generally speaking, the ways of a trail describe its geographical path and physical grade, while the trail relation holds its administrative information. Trails should be mapped according the following guidelines:

way Ways belonging to a trail

  • Add a colour=* tag to ways belonging to local and regional trails. Note that the spelling is "colour" and not "color"!
    • When a trail has different Israel Trails Committee (ITC) and JNF (KKL) colors, use only the ITC color.
    • When a way belongs to local and regional trails, use the color of the local trail.
    • When a way belongs to two local ITC trails, use multi-value tagging with a semicolon, such as colour=red;green.
  • Try to add a source=* tag to ways belonging to the trail. Common tag values are source=GPS and source=Bing. The source tag is an indicator of the accuracy of the trail position. GPS-based mapping is preferred and it can replace Bing-based mapping.
  • For highway=track ways please try to add a tracktype=* tag, indicating which kinds of vehicles can use the track:
Key Value Description
tracktype grade1 High quality unpaved road. Usable, for example, by low-clearance cars - דרך עפר באיכות גבוהה
tracktype grade2 All vehicle unpaved road - דרך עפר לכל כלי רכב
tracktype grade3 All-wheel-drive unpaved road - "דרך עפר לרכב שטח "רך
tracktype grade4 Unpaved road requiring high clearance and/or low gear - (דרך עפר לרכב שטח "קשוח" (מוגבה ו/או עם הילוך כח
tracktype grade5 Unpaved road requiring a locking differential and high clearance - "דרך עפר לרכב שטח "נעול

relation Trail relations

Every marked trail should be represented by a relation relation and tagged according to the guidelines below. The ways way belonging to the trail are the members of the relation.

Key Value Explanation
type=* route Mandatory. The relation represents a route.
route=* hiking / bicycle / mtb (mountainbike) Mandatory. The trail kind of the route.
network=* nwn / rwn / lwn / ncn / rcn / lcn Mandatory. Level of the trail.
  • nwn: National Walking Network - Shvil Israel (Israel National Trail - שביל ישראל) only
  • rwn: Regional Walking Network - Special named (Golan, Jesus, Emek Ha'Ma'ayanot, Sovev Kineret, Jerusalem, etc.) and unnamed long "regional" (purple and orange) routes
  • lwn: Local Walking Network - All other walking routes
  • ncn: National Cycling Network - Israel Bike Trail (שביל ישראל לאופניים) only
  • rcn: Regional Cycling Network - Such as TLV-JM (מים לי-ם)
  • lcn: Local Cycling Network - All other bicycle routes(e.g. Ness Ziona Scenic, Canada Park Black)
operator=* itc/kkl/rtg/user-defined Mandatory. The authority that built and maintains the route.
  • itc - Israel Trails Committee (הועדה לשבילי ישראל). Most of the hiking trails are of this type.
  • kkl - Keren Kayemet LeIsrael (הקרן הקיימת לישראל).
  • rtg - Rashut HaTeva VeHaGanim (רשות הטבע והגנים).
  • Other authorities, such as municipalities, by name.
osmc:symbol=* The shield of the route, used for rendering. Mandatory for ITC trails. Machine readable value for the route's colors and how the marking (shield) should look like.
Shield osmc:symbol Shield osmc:symbol
שחור.PNG black:white:black_stripe INT mark.png blue:white:blue_stripe:orange_stripe_left
אדום.PNG red:white:red_stripe סגול.PNG purple:white:purple_stripe
כחול.PNG blue:white:blue_stripe Jesus Trail Mark.png orange:white:orange_stripe
Israel Green Trail Mark.PNG green:white:green_stripe Golan Trail Mark.png blue:white:blue_stripe:green_stripe_left
שקוף.PNG black:white Jerusalem Trail Mark.png yellow:blue:yellow_stripe

For the single-colored routes, the value should follow this example: red:white:red_stripe, which means: red colored way is drawn with white background and a red vertical stripe. In particular, the foreground color and the stripe color should be equal to the "colour" tag of every way in the trail ("red" in the above example). The shield background color should always be "white".

A transparent shield would be tagged with osmc:symbol=black:white.

Tags for three-colored trail marks, such as Israel Trail and Golan Trail, should follow this example: blue:white:blue_stripe:orange_stripe_left, which means: blue colored way, white background shield, a blue vertical stripe in the middle, and an orange vertical stripe on the left.

name=* a name Highly recommended. The route is known by this name (e.g. "Shvil Israel", "Golan Trail"). The name should be preferably specified in Hebrew.
name:en=* a name Optional. The English route name.
name:he=* a name Optional. Identical to the name attribute above.
ref=* a reference Optional. The route number as specified by the Israel Trail Committee.

The original discussions can be seen here and also here.

Names of unofficial MTB single-tracks

Official mountain-bike (MTB) trails are represented using relations, as described above. In addition there are many unofficial single-tracks that have been named by the MTB community. Such single-tracks do not have relations. Instead, the mtb:name=* mtb:name:he=*, and mtb:name:en=* (optional) are placed on the way(s) themselves.

The mtb:name=* tags can also capture the name of a special segment within an official MTB trail. For example, the "סינגל הכלניות" segment of Beeri Single.

Bing

The most recent layer is Bing.

Forum discussion: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=59935

The precise date is unclear, and it may be varying by place. According to the Bing Imagery Analyzer, the minimum year is 2009 and the maximum year is 2016, but it's unclear whether or not the actual range is a subset of that.

Bots and imports

Below is a list of major imports and active bots.

Bot

SafwatHalaby's scripts currently operate in Israel and update bus stops and name tags.

GEOnet Names Server (gns) import

On 14 July 2008, in changeset 486478, BaruchEven imported "all locations based on the GEOnet Names Server" at that time. The imported nodes had a source=GEOnet Names Server (gns) tag, a unique gns_ref tag, and the accuracy of their location was captured with an accuracy=minutes tag. Translations of the names were not part of the import. For more information, see an historic version of this page.

KKL Forest import

KKL donated shape files for its managed forests.
