• ​man_made=tower
• ​man_made=communications_tower
• ​man_made=water_tower
• ​man_made=antenna

Secondary tags

• ​tower:construction=*
• ​tower:type=*
• ​technology=*
• ​frequency=*
• ​communication:radio=*, ​communication:bos=* and ​communication:gsm-r=*, ​communication:microwave=*, ​communication:mobile_phone=*, ​communication:television=*
• ​historic=tower

Additional tags

​name=*, ​ref=*, ​operator=*, ​height=*, ​ele=*, ​material=*, ​access=*, ​fee=* and ​opening_hours=*

Notes

• Some new tower:type could be added

Help needed

• Please, feel free to enhance and update the preset.
• Due to #11392 translation is still only possible within the source code.
• Still needs some nicer icons as vector graphic for minaret, monitoring and radar.
