This key indicates the name of the feature's main source=*. Along with source:url=*, source:date=*, etc., this key makes it possible for a data consumer to present the source to end users with more predictable formatting than with all the details mixed together in source=*.

Note that this definition differs from the definition of an identically named key in OpenStreetMap. OpenHistoricalMap uses *:source=* as a suffix, contrary to OSM's use of source:*=* as a prefix. In OHM, name:source=* is the key that indicates the source of name=*.

Examples

•
