OSM Tag History
StyleInfo
place
province
is a subdivision of a
country
similar to a
state
. Some countries have provinces rather than states.
How to map
When the province boundaries are unknown, it's possible to represent a province as a
node
tagged with
place
province
along with
name
=*
If the boundaries are known, a more common approach is to map provinces using a
relation
tagged as
type
boundary
boundary
administrative
admin_level
=*
, and
border_type
province
When representing the province as a boundary relation, it is not recommended to use
place
province
on the relation itself.
However, it can be included on a separate
label
node
to indicate the placement of the province label.
Refer to:
Relation:boundary#Relation_members
for detailed instructions on creating boundary relations and label nodes.
Tag:boundary=administrative#10_admin_level_values_for_specific_countries
for the recommended values of the 'admin_level' tag.
