In my wishlist

A bash script that makes it easy to install the entire OpenStreetMap server stack on a single server, like MediaWiki. I have been trying to build instructions, but progress is at a halt due to extremely poor mental health.

RFC TODO

• Service and connecting roads
• Historic alignments
• Destinations

Naming

Warning: Removing Macedonian or Turkish translations, without a good non-political reason, is against community rules.

Type	Example(s) that you may encounter	Tags	Notes
Motorway	Αυτοκινητόδρομος Αθήνα-Θεσσαλονίκη-Εύζωνοι	name=Αυτοκινητόδρομος Αθήνα-Θεσσαλονίκη-Εύζωνοι	These names are only used when there is no signed name or common name (e.g. Αττική Οδός or Ολυμπία Οδός). The prefixes are kept to avoid confusion with the historic alignments. Leave it to the renderer to abbreviate or shorten the names (e.g. Εθνική Οδός to ΕΟ).
National Road	Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών	name=Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών
Provincial Road	Επαρχιακή Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών	name=Επαρχιακή Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών
Old National Road	Παλαιά Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών	name=Παλαιά Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών
Old Provincial Road	Παλαιά Επαρχιακή Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών	name=Παλαιά Επαρχιακή Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών
Named avenues	Λεωφόρος Αθηνών	name=Αθηνών name:prefix=Λεωφόρος (optional)	Prefixes for named roads are never used in practice (e.g. postal addresses).
Named streets	Οδός Αθηνών	name=Αθηνών name:prefix=Οδός
Parallel road for a Motorway, National or Provincial Road	Παράδρομος Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών	name=Παράδρομος Εθνική Οδός Αθηνών-Πατρών (optional)	name=Παράπλευρη Οδός is not acceptable, because it may cause confusion when two sets of parallel roads meet.
Parallel road for a named avenue or street	Παράδρομος Αθηνών	name=Παράδρομος Αθηνών

Motorway names

The default names may not apply to all sections (such as the Kifisou Avenue on the southern end of the Α1), as well as notable tunnels and bridges. In such cases, the route relation will suffice.

Old names only apply from junction 15 upwards.

Named bridges and tunnel

The choice of keys depend on notability.

Named	Notable	Bridge or tunnel name	Road name	Notes
		name=*	alt_name=*	Examples include the Charilaos-Trikoupis Bridge on the Α5, and the Tempe Tunnel T2 on the Α1.
		tunnel:name=*	name=*	Examples include the Metamorfosi Tunnel on the A6.
