Runway guard lights are installed at the holding position where a taxiway meets a runway to prevent a runway incursion. They are either a pair of elevated flashing yellow lights installed on either side of the taxiway, or a row of in-pavement yellow lights installed across the entire taxiway.

How to map

Set a node node where the light is and add aeroway=navigationaid + navigationaid=rgl
