There's a page dedicated to the current OSM Key on their wiki https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Standard_tile_layer/Key.

Is it what you're looking for? Apart from that, the page for each tag will show the corresponding marker or colorcode in the OSM theme.




Thanks, something like that (I have seen that page though), but in a script form (which I didn't find so far). I certainly would not want to have to render a bogus map myself to extract similar images. Maybe I will just scrape it out of the page.


I'm not sure what you mean by "in a script form". In any case, the "authoritative" source of the template served by time.openstreetmap.org is this GitHub: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto


In script form=a script that generates a list of tiles with localised terrain names, given a list of tag combinations as on the page you mentioned earlier. I probably have to look better around their repos. Both links you have given so far have already proven useful elsewhere. Maybe I just have to render a map with a bunch of squares and make them into tiles. Thanks anyway!
