In terms of tag usage (keys and values), OpenGeofiction attempts to stick to the standards and best practices as extensively documented on the OpenStreetMap wiki. Users are encouraged to consult the wiki for the most up-to-date tagging practices and to understand how things render on the map. There are extensive discussions of map features and how to map various elements.
OpenGeofiction uses some custom tagging, however, as a means of administrating the site and for further world-building. Below, we discuss some aspects of tagging that provide additional clarification for use in OpenGeofiction.
Country-specific Tagging
Even on OpenStreetMap, there are varying standards for how things such as administrative boundaries, highways, and railroads are mapped depending on region or individual country. Similarly, different territories on OpenGeofiction also feature different definitions for what is rendered. For example, a way tagged highway=tertiary
in one territory may have very different attributes from one in another. Here are a collection of tags and how they are defined by the mappers of various territories.
Special OGF tags
Unlike OpenStreetMap, OpenGeoFiction does not represent a real, physical world; the needs of the site are different. Thus, OpenGeofiction features a collection of additional site-exclusive tags to help facilitate the site's administration and to help users with collaborative world-building. Please note that these tags are extensions of OpenStreetMap tagging and are only designed to be used on OpenGeofiction.
Please note that the tags is_in:continent=*
and ogf:id=*
must be included on every territory relation for administrative purposes. Do not remove or change the values of these tags without first having admin approval.
Key and tag values | Comment | Map type and page | |
---|---|---|---|
key:driving_side
|
driving_side=*
|
May be added to the territory relation or individual highways to highlight the territory's primary driving side. Permissible parameters:
|
Index:Driving side |
key:economy
|
economy=*
|
Parameters are defined here as numerical values. If your territory does not fit cleanly into a specific model, please use one of the multiples of ten for generic or broad definitions.
|
Index:World economics |
economy:hdi=*
|
Any numerical value is permissible. | Index:World economics | |
economy:note=*
|
Custom description that may be used to describe elements of the economic ideology but is limited to 64 characters. | Index:World economics | |
key:gauge
|
gauge=*
|
Although OSM only uses it to tag individual rail lines, it may be added to the territory relation on OGF to highlight national standards. Values that map are presently limited to 1000, 1067, 1435, 1520, 1600, 1668, 1676, and other. Additional values may be added later should demand warrant. | Index:Rail transport |
key:history
|
history:established=*
|
Year of establishment, founding, or independence. | Index:World history |
history:independence_from=*
|
List territory from whom it gained independence. | Index:World history | |
history:revolution=*
|
Year of current governance structure, whether it be by new constitution or revolution. | Index:World history | |
key:is_in
|
is_in:continent=*
|
Permissible parameters:
|
Various administrative pages |
key:ogf
|
ogf:area=*
|
Custom administrative tag for OGF areas. Please do not remove or alter. | Various administrative pages |
ogf:id=*
|
Custom tag for OGF territorial identifications. Please do not remove or alter. | Various administrative pages | |
ogf:wiki=*
|
Custom tag for linking to wiki page. Please only include the wiki article name for the territory (e.g. ogf:wiki=Plevia ).
|
Most multimap pages | |
key:organization
|
organization:AN=*
|
AN membership status, with possible parameters member and no
|
Assembly of Nations |
organization:AC=*
|
Antarephian Coalition membership status, with possible parameters member and observer
|
Antarephian Coalition | |
organization:ASUN=*
|
ASUN membership status, with possible parameters member , observer , and partner
|
Association of South Ulethan Nations | |
organization:Egalia=*

|
power_supply:frequency=*
|
Frequency of the common residential utility power in Hertz (Hz). The two used in the real world are 50 and 60. | Index:Mains electricity |
power_supply:voltage=*
|
Voltage of the common residential utility power in volts (V). | Index:Mains electricity | |
key:timezone
|
timezone=+hh
|
Used for any whole number between -12 and 12. Zero would probably need a plus (+) just to differentiate it from a null value. Each whole number would display a consistent time, with four or six colors being possible and rotating through for ease of style sheet. | Index:Time zones |
timezone=+hh:mm
|
Used for any offset time zone. One standardized color for all (bulk "other" category) just to show that it is different from hour-based time zones. | Index:Time zones | |
timezone:dst=*
|
Parameters are simply yes and no . Definitions may be defined in the timezone note.
|
Index:Time zones | |
timezone:note=*
|
Comment used for display on popup when clicking the map. Will be capped at 50 characters. | Index:Time zones | |
