Sign, for example on roofs or facades of commercial buildings, used to identify the business, or promote a product or service. Also used for neon signs (use luminous=*), logos & place signs/institutional entrance signs (like schools, power plants, wastewater treatment plants, landfills, large hospital or university campuses, etc.).

Combinations

  • name=* – if the sign is well known enough to have a common name
  • inscription=* – the text on the sign
  • lit=* – the sign is lit, i.e. lights are positioned to reflect off it making it visible at night
  • luminous=* – indicates whether the sign is luminous, i.e. it directly emits some light, rather than just having lights reflected off it.
  • animated=* – indicates whether the sign is animated, and the way it is animated.
  • material=* – what the sign is made of (stone, metal, etc.)
