Ta strona zawiera opis tagowania OpenRailwayMap.

The tagging scheme below is kept highly generic in order to be applicable internationally. More information on specific details for certain countries (such as signals, operating procedures), including illustrated examples, are available at country-specific tagging.

Dla wielu tagów jest ustalona pewna domyślna wartość, która powinna być przyjęta przez aplikacje, gdy dany tag nie jest ustawiony — aplikacje powinny założyć, że domyślna wartość jest prawidłowa. Jeśli domyślna wartość tagu jest zgodna z rzeczywistą, nie musisz go dodawać, ale możesz to zrobić, żeby pokazać, że o nim nie zapomniałeś i żeby zapobiec konfliktom między aplikacjami.

Schemat tagowania

Infrastruktura

Tory

linia Każdy tor jest traktowany osobno. Dwutorowe linie muszą być oznaczone jako dwa osobne tory. Tagi takie jak tracks=* nie są uwzględniane przez OpenRailwayMap, ponieważ każda zmapowana droga jest traktowana jako pojedynczy tor.

Klucz Wartość Znaczenie Opis Domyślna wartość
railway rail Aktywny tor Tor który jest używany w regularnym ruchu.
proposed Planowany tor Planowany tor, ciągle w fazie projektowej (jeszcze nie budowany).
construction Tor w budowie Można użyć construction=* do dokładniejszego opisu. Przyjmuje on wartość ustawianą dla railway=* np. railway=construction i construction=narrow_gauge.
disused Nieużywany tor Tor ciągle istnieje, choć nie jest używany. Może być zarośnięty.
abandoned Rozebrany tor Tor (bądź jego podtorze) jest wciąż widoczny, lecz nie może obsługiwać ruchu kolejowego. Pozostałości po nim stanowią nasypy, rowy, mosty i tunele.
razed Overbuilt track A former track that has been built upon. While some remains might still be seen, the former route is subject to educated guesses for the most part.
narrow_gauge Wąskotorowy tor Tor którego rozstaw jest mniejszy niż typowy dla tego kraju. Do zdefiniowania rozstawu użyj gauge=*. Dla torów z trzema szynami używamy tagu railway=rail a dwa rozstawy podajemy za pomocą gauge=*, odseparowane od siebie za pomocą średnika (np. 1435;1000).
light_rail Suburban train/City railway City railway and tramlike underground or suburban trains. They mostly match a heavy train, but differ in power system, it's own signals and a special vehicle fleet (such as "S-Bahn" Hamburg and Berlin, Hamburger Hochbahn). It hardly crosses road traffic.
subway Metro Podziemna kolej w większych miastach, zasilana głównie z trzeciej szyny. Posiada własne pojazdy i system sygnalizacji. Czasami także wychodzi na powierzchnię. Nie używaj tego tagu dla zwykłej kolei, która częściowo idzie pod ziemią!
tram Tram Mostly overground on-street laid tracks. It's common that vehicles like motorcars can share traffic lanes with trams. Some special railways similar to trams might be also mapped using this tag. Larger parts of tram tracks can also go underground. Some tram routes also use ordinary railway tracks. These should me mapped as ordinary railway tracks.
miniature Miniaturowa kolej Małe kolejki w parkach, na pokaz lub jako atrakcja turystyczna. Przeważnie wąskotorowe (do 600mm).
name <nazwa linii> Nazwa linii kolejowej Nazwa linii kolejowej np. Linia Hutnicza Szerokotorowa. Używaj tego tagu tylko dla oficjalnych nazw. Nie powinieneś wprowadzać opisów takich jak Rzeszów - Stalowa Wola lub nazw torów wewnątrz stacji typu Tor 5. Zobacz Names#Name_is_the_name_only.
description <opis linii> Opis linii kolejowej Nazwa linii kolejowej która jest bardziej opisowa niż name=* (zobacz Names#Name_is_the_name_only), np. Rzeszów - Stalowa Wola lub Tor 5.
ref <numer linii> Numer linii kolejowej Numer referencyjny linii kolejowej która przebiega po torze.
railway:track_ref <numer toru> Numer toru Numer toru wewnątrz stacji kolejowej.
historic railway Historyczny tor kolejowy Powinien być używany razem z railway=disused, railway=abandoned, i railway=razed. no
railway:preserved yes/no Preserved Railway Track Heritage railways or railways which are operated with the aim to preserve the historical state (vehicles, buildings, signalling). Usually (but not necessarily) such tracks are operated by railroad museums for the purpose of tourism, although there are also lines with regular public transport with historic trains (e.g. Harz narrow gauge railways) or trolley routes. This Tag replaces railway=preserved. no
usage Uwaga: wewnątrz obszaru stacji kolejowej, używaj usage=* tylko dla głównych torów (nie dla siding, yard itd.). Dotyczy to także skrzyżowań i mijanek poza stacją kolejową. Zawsze używaj tych tagów tylko dla głównych torów. As an exemption, you may use usage=industrial on siding and yard tracks, and crossovers in industrial areas such as harbours and mines.
main Główna linia Główna linia, przeważnie dwutorowa i zelektryfikowana. Używaj tego tagu tylko dla linii z wysoką maksymalną prędkością i dużym ruchem. Przejazdy kolejowe są zwykle na różnych poziomach.
branch Odgałęzienie Odgałęzione linie. W większości są jednotorowe, niezelektryfikowane i z małą maksymalną prędkością. Przejazdy kolejowe często są na tym samym poziomie co tory.
industrial Linie przemysłowe Linie te obsługują transport. W większości znajdują się w dużych portach lub obszarach przemysłowych. Często należą do tych firm. As an exemption, you may use usage=industrial on siding and yard tracks, and crossovers in industrial areas such as harbours and mines.
military Tory używane przez wojsko Najczęściej znajdują się pomiędzy stacjami kolejowymi a składami amunicji.
tourism Tory używane Linie używane tylko turystycznie, często w użyciu tylko latem. Lubią je uruchamiać muzea żeby prezentować stare pociągi.
test Tor testowy Tor używany do testowania nowych pojazdów.
highspeed yes/no Szybka linia Czy jest to linia dużych prędkości (z dozwoloną prędkością ponad 200km/h)? Such lines may have balastless/slab track and usually have no level crossings.

Operator Boundary

węzeł The point where the operator of a track changes (e.g. at sidings or connections between private railway companies and the national railway company.

This tag has been used for owner changes at country borders until end 2014/early 2015.

Signals

węzeł Signals are tagged as a point on the the track. So it is clear which track they belong to. It is reccomended to see country-specific tagging to use the specific tagging scheme for your country.

Important Hint: If a signal is tagged between two OSM-ways, both ways have to have the same direction. So it is possible for applications to detect the correct position.

Lista właściwości sygnałów:

Znaczenie Nazwa Opis
<user defined> Nazwa sygnału lub skrót Zależna od kraju nazwa lub skrót sygnału. Jeżeli nieznana, wystarczy wpisać nawet yes, jeżeli zastosuje się też inne, bardziej szczegółowe, tagi. W celu uniknięcia niejasności, wartość powininna być poprzedzona kodem kraju ISO 3166-2 (np.: PL:<nazwa>). Jeżeli w danym kraju nie ma ujednoliconego systemu nazewnictwa, należy użyć ogólnego określenia, pisanego małymi literami. Przykłady: railway:signal:main=AT:hauptsignal, railway:signal:main=DE:hp, lub railway:signal:main=US:main.
form Wygląd Fizyczna forma sygnalizatora: semafor kształtowy (semaphore), semafor świetlny (light) lub wskaźnik (sign).
deactivated Aktywność Określa, czy sygnalizator jest w użyciu (yes/no).
height Wysokość Wysokość sygnalizatora: karzeł (dwarf) lub normalny (normal). Można też podać konkretną wartość w metrach.
states Signal Aspects For variable signals, a list of possible signal aspects, each separated by a semicolon (e.g.: clear:aproach_limited:limited_clear:approach_medium:...).
shortened Brak drogi hamowania Określa, czy nie jest zachowana droga hamowania między tym a następnym sygnalizatorem (na sieci PLK wskaźniki W19 i W20) (yes/no).
repeated Semafor powtarzający Użyj (yes) aby określić, że opisywany sygnalizator jest powtarzaczem dla innego sygnalizatora.
frequency Frequency When activated, the frequency reading of the signal in Hertz (Hz).
voltage Voltage When activated, the voltage reading of the signal in Volts (V).
speed Wskaźnik ograniczenia prędkości Sygnalizator wskazuje maksymalną dopuszczalną prędkość na danym odcinku szlaku (wskaźnik W8 na PLK) lub zmianę prędkości szlakowej (wskaźnik W27). W pierwszym przypadku odpowiadający tag maxspeed należy umieścić na odcinku określonym odpowiednimi wskaźnikami (W9a i W9b lub W14a i W14b - na PLK), w drugim przypadku odpowiadający tag maxspeed rozpoczyna się wraz z opisywanym sygnalizatorem.
function Funkcja sygnału The exact function of the signal, such as an Entry Signal (entry), Exit Signal (exit), Block Signal (block) or Intermediate Signal (intermediate). In the past, the deprecated value between was used for intermediate signals.
caption Dodatkowy tekst Dodatkowy opis umieszczony na sygnalizatorze. Znaczenie tego tagu jest w większości przypadków takie samo jak tagu ref=*. Przykładowe wartości: Wk8 (wykolejnica), B (semafor).
marker_light Marker Light Does the signal have a special light to show that it temporarily is invalid? Either (yes or no). Deprecated and moved to DE:OpenRailwayMap/Tagging in Germany.
only_transit Tylko dla przejazdów tranzytowych Określa, czy opisywany sygnał dotyczy wyłącznie pociągów przejeżdzających bez planowego postoju przez dany posterunek (yes/no).
substitute_signal Sygnał zastępczy Sygnalizator dodany do innego sygnalizatora (przykładowo semafor świetlny z pojedynczą białą komorą ustawiony przed semaforem kształtowym). W przypadku sieci PLK umożliwia on przejazd obok (przykładowo) uszkodzonego semafora wskazującego sygnał stój lub wątpliwy, z odpowiednio zmniejszoną prędkością (20 km/h) i gotowością do natychmiastowego zatrzymania składu. W przypadku semaforów świetlnych najczęściej funkcję sygnału zastępczego pełni dolna (biała) komora, o ile jest obecna. Wartości: yes/no.
twice Double Signal Is the signal instruction to be carried out twice? Either (yes or no).
type Subtype or order The subtype of a signal or what has to be down at/after this signal.

For specific tagging of certain signals in a specific country, refer to the Country-specific tagging section. These pages are currently a work-in-progress.

Lokalizacje operacyjne

For English speakers, there is no real equivilent for the German term "Betriebsstelle", or Operating Sites. Since this scheme is made by Germans, it is important for mappers to understand what it means. "Betriebsstelle" in German is a railway engineering term that refers to locations on the railroad where special infrastructure is installed; this means Junctions, both Freight and Passenger Stations, among other things described in the section below. From herein, the word Betriebsstelle will not be used.

Operating Sites are to be mapped as a node in the center of the site. Optionally (though reccomended for information's sake), a relation can be used to encompass the entire site, which is described in the section below.

An overview for the way Operating Sites should me mapped is included below:

  • The purpose of including Operating Sites is that they are needed in positioning a label on the map, to be used as a destination for routing applications, or to be used as a search result.
    • Normally, it is mapped as a node at the geographical center of the Operating Site.
    • Since the point of the node is for routing purposes, it can be acceptable to map the node somewhere else if placing it at the geographical center of the Operating Site will have adverse affects. Example: The geographical center is in the middle of water or a forest, or other such area.
  • When mapping the area of the Operating Point through the appropriate relation, use the following standards:
    • Track towards an Operating Point (in the case of a Station) should start at the entry signals, signs on the track announcing the station, or the switch it originates from. For non-stations, use analogous landmarks to determine this.
      • In North America, knowing where to differentiate this could be a bit nebulous. Still, try and keep with the logic structure.
    • For the area perpindicular to the track(s), the outer limits should the the boundary of the railway property.
    • At least tracks, platforms, engine sheds, station buildings, signal facilities, and loading facilities should be included. Other facilities such as parking can be added at discretion of the mapper.

Additionally, you should map Stop Positions. These are then included in the aforementioned Operating Site relation. Interlockings are not Operating Sites.

Milepost information is not to be included in the Operating Site relation.

węzeł Taguj używając węzła w środku stacji/przystanku (NIE dodawaj go do linii reprezentującej tor).

If a station is composed of two or more operational independent stations (e.g. two companies' station side-by-side, strictly separated, they should be mapped as two stations, each one should have its own node. For example, see Berlin Zoologischer Garten (S-Bahn/light rail in the north-west and heavy rail in the south-east). Stations which are operational part of another (mostly large) station are mapped as independent station and connected to their parent station using operation site relations. For example, see Köln Hansaring, which belongs to Köln Hbf (Cologne Central Station).

Stop positions

węzeł This is not neccisarily required, but can help routing significantly in the absence of other information. If you know where they are, map them. Tagging is based off of the Public Transport Schema, but was expanded to cover non-public transit as well. This should be mapped as a node ON the way of the track.

On stations and halts (wether with or without passenger trains stopping there) every track which may be tagged with usage=* should get a node with railway=stop. In addition, every track with a platform should get a node with railway=stop. If there is a node with public_transport=stop_position already, add railway=stop to this node.

On sidings one node per track before and after the siding should be tagged with railway=stop. The same applies for crossovers.

You can use following tags for stop positions:

public_transport stop_position Stop Position Defines this point as a stop position of the vehicle (locomotive). In Stop Positions without public treansport, this tag is not used.

Railway lines

Railway Lines are mapped with relations, and split between three categories that should not be mixed up: infrastructure, railway route, and train route. Infrastructure is based around the physical tracks. These are often expressed as branches for smaller lines, and in North America for larger lines, are often called Subdivisions. Another type is the railway route, which is the route of operation of trains (plural) over the infrastructure. The last relation is the train route, which is the route a specific train will take over the aforementioned railway route, showing in order the standard tracks it will take and where it will stop.

Railway Line

Stacja/Przystanek

relacja All components of a station/stop, including stop positions, are summarized by adding them to a relation. The tagging is directly based on the Public Transport Schema, but was extended to also cover Operating Sites, which is a category that contains things not used in public transport.

If a track along one platform edge has multiple numbers (e.g. 4a and 4b because it is used by two trains at the same time), the platform can be mapped as multipolygon. Tags which were tagged at the area should be transferred to the multipolygon relation. The platform edges parallel to the tracks are tagged with railway=platform_edge and ref=<track number>.

If the platform is divided into sections (A, B, C, …) to describe which carriage stops at which section, you can map a nodes at the section signs onto the platform edge and tag it with railway:platform:section=C.

obszar Factories, industrial plants, or other companies that have railway access. Please tag all buildings at the factory as having rail connections If the building exists previously, please just add the below tags, if they aren't already present. The tracks themselves should be tagged with usage=industrial. The purpose of all of this is to specifically highlight these buildings in ORM.

The following tags are important to OpenRailwayMap rendering industrial sites specifically:

Urządzenia elektryczne

Schemat tagowania sposobu elektryfikacji i napięcia na trakcji można znaleźć w sekcji torowej tej strony.

Słup trakcyjny

węzeł Słupy trakcyjne można mapować za pomocą tagu power=catenary_mast.

Izolator sekcyjny

węzeł Izolatory to punkty na trakcji lub szynie elektrycznej, które rozłączają dwa obwody elektryczne.

Klucz Wartość Znaczenie Opis Domyślna wartość
railway:electricity joint Izolator sekcyjny Ten punkt na trakcji lub szynie elektrycznej rozłącza dwa obwody elektryczne.
railway:electricity:jumpering jumpered/possible/no status mostkowania Opisuje domyślny stan tego izolatora. Użyj jumpered, jeśli ten izolator przeważnie nie rozłącza dwóch sekcji. Użyj possible, jeśli ten izolator przeważnie rozłącza dwa obwody elektryczne, ale mogą być zmostkowane, jeśli jedno ze źródeł zasilania ulegnie awarii, lub pociąg elektryczny ulegnie awarii w izolowanej sekcji. Użyj no, jeśli ten izolator nigdy nie może zostać zmostkowany.

Sekcje neutralne

linia Sekcje torowiska, gdzie trakcja jest uziemiona (najczęściej przy izolatorach) i gdzie wyłącznik główny musi zostać wyłączony, powinny zostać otagowana jako railway:main_switch_off=yes.


Sekcje torowiska, gdzie pantograf musi zostać opuszczony

linia Sekcje torowiska, gdzie pantograf musi zostać opuszczony (np. ruchome mosty) powinny zostać otagowane jako railway:lower_pantograph_section=yes.

Zasilanie

węzeł Zasilanie z linii jest dostarczane w tym miejscu do trakcji lub szyny elektrycznej. Tagowane jest jako węzeł na torze w miejscu przyłączenia z tagiem railway=power_supply.
