A harbour installation with a service or commercial operation of public interest.

A body of water providing protection for vessels, and providing anchoring and docking facilities.

How to map

Mapping the area

Draw the outline of the harbour and add

• seamark:type=harbour
• seamark:harbour:category=*
• seamark:name=* - name
• landuse=industrial
• industrial=port
• port=*

Alternative tagging on a node

If the port area cannot be clearly specified, only one node should be set. Since the key landuse cannot be applied to a node, one should use harbour=yes and the seamark tags instead.

• harbour=yes
• seamark:type=harbour
• seamark:harbour:category=*
• seamark:name=*
• name=*

  • harbour=yes : Anything related to some "harbor" ; or the "harbor" water area, which is overlapping with hrbbsn seamark:type=harbour_basin
  • HRBARE "harbor area" : Includes both land and water. It forms a unit inside the larger "port" jurisdiction area.
  • HRBFAC "harbor facility" : Land side "harbor installation" only. In the newer Inland ENC, terminals are separated into termnl specifically.
