Common Artwork fields

Fields
All OpenStreetMap tags are described by key:value pairs

*artwork_type=statue*

If the tag value is different for different languages there are language tags

E.g. name=en:Dawn

Below the tags which usually get used for artworks:

-------------------

Name
The name of the artwork.

If an artwork has no name don't add this field but create a new "noname" tag and set it to yes: "noname=yes"

Examples:
name=en:Dawn
name=de:Sonnenuntergang

----

Description
If required add a description. The language tag goes into the key section

Examples:
description:en=The artwork is on the upper right side of the wall

description:de=Das Kunstwerk befindet sich an der Wand rechts oben

 

Artist
artist_name: Name of the artist

Example:

artist_name=Michael Dan Archer

If the artist is on Wikipedia add a link to it. Pick the most relevant language and let users switch in Wikipedia if they want to see another language

Links to Wikipedia are tagged with shortcodes:

wikipedia=<language_code>:<article_title>

Actual URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Dan_Archer

OSM Tag: wikipedia=en:Michael_Dan_Archer

Examples:

artist:wikipedia=en:Michael Dan Archer

artist:wikipedia=de:Michael Dan Archer

----

Artwork type
Sculpture, bust, statue, graffiti, ...the editor will show which values are available

Examples:

artwork_type=statue

artwork_type=sculpture

----

Image
There are several ways to link an image to your artwork.

If the image is already available online, add a link to it. If not take a picture, upload it to either wikimedia or panoramax and add the link to OpenStreetMap.

Avoid propriatary image services. As far as I know officially supported by OpenStreetMap are wikidata/wikimedia, Panoramax.

1. Image tag

image=url to artwork image

Make sure whatever you add as url points to the actual image (JPG, PNG), ends with jpg/png, not a website which displays images

Example: 

image=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fe/Michael_dan_archer.jpg

2. Panoramax

Panoramax is a project to collect and display street-level imagery. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panoramax

Either use the Panoramax website or one of the mobile applications (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Baba) to upload and retrieve the Panoramax tag.

Example: 

panoramax=ab0a3663-8130-4d80-951f-95c34a33d5e6

----

Start Date
Date an artwork was installed or created.

Examples:

start_date=1999

start_date=2000

----

Subject Wikipedia
This tag references the artwork, not the artist!

Like the artist tag, use the wikipedia shortcode, not the full url

Url: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Des_Esels_Schatten

Shortcode: subject:wikipedia=de:Des Esels Schatten

Examples:
subject:wikipedia=eo:La_ombro_de_la_azeno
subject:wikipedia=de:Des Esels Schatten

----

Wheelchair
Indicates if an artwork is accessible by wheelchair.

Use this as reference: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wheelchair

Examples:

wheelchair=no

wheelchair=yes

wheelchair=limited

----

Material
Defines whatever the actual material is

Examples: 

material=stone

material=wood

For stone PublicArtExplorer also supports the more granular stone tag.

Set the value for material to stone and add the stone tag to define the actual type of stone.

Example:

material=stone

stone=Gauinger Travertin

Don't confuse the above with stone_type=*, which is normally used to specify what a stone monument or memorial is representing (a cross, a code of arms, a bollard etc.) whereas stone=* is used to specify the stone material. 

----

Relations
If multiple artwork items belong together, create a site_relation tag and use that one for all the artworks which should be grouped together

The relation can have it's own tags which are shown together with the individual tags.

Currently supported are:
- name=*
- wikipedia=<language_code>:<article_title>
- type=site

Example:

name=Bildhauersymposion Oggelshausen

type=site

wikipedia=de:Bildhauersymposion_Oggelshausen
