This page offers a variety of examples categorized by complexity and timeframes, helping contributors understand how to tag opening hours.

Time

Basic

opening_hours= 24/7

Open all week and the whole day.

Places that typically have these hours are, but not limited to, fast food restaurants, gas stations, hotels and ATM's.

opening_hours= 01:00-14:00

Open everyday from 1:00 to 14:00 (1:00 AM - 2:00 PM)

This is the basic.

opening_hours= 00:00-10:00, 12:00-14:00

Open everyday but not between 10:00-12:00.

Example usage: Employee lunch break, sanitation period, restocking period, and more.

Event

The following are the only valid events: dawn|sunrise|sunset|dusk

opening_hours= sunrise-sunset

Open everyday from sunrise to sunset.

Typically used in parks, beaches, campgrounds, temples, and etc.

Advanced

opening_hours= 10:00+

Open everyday at 10, but no set closing time.

Example usage: When a establishment (bars, nightclubs, coffee shops, etc.) closes when the last customer leaves.

opening_hours= dawn-sunset+

Open everyday from dawn to sunset then stays open for any reason.

Its recommended, but not necessary to add a comment for closing time like:

opening_hours= 01:00-sunset+ "Closes when event finishes."

Open from 10:00 to 20:00, but closes when a event is finished.

Note: Comments can be anything, there is no specific rule to them.

opening_hours= 01:00-12:00/60

An event that happens every 60 minutes between 1:00 to 12:00

Usage example: Collection times of a post box or recycling container

This can also be written as:

opening_hours= 01:00-12:00/01:00

An event that happens every hour between 1:00 to 12:00.

opening_hours= (sunrise+02:00)-12:00

Open everyday from 2 hours after sunrise to 12:00.

Weekday

Remember that weekdays are abbreviated to 2 letters as follows:

Abbr.	Day of week
Mo	Monday
Tu	Tuesday
We	Wednesday
Th	Thursday
Fr	Friday
Sa	Saturday
Su	Sunday

Basic

opening_hours= Tu

Is open every Tuesday the whole day.

opening_hours= Mo-Th

Is open the whole day from Monday to Thursday only. The other days are assumed closed.

Alternatively you can do

opening_hours= Mo-Th open; Fr-Su closed

Is open the whole day from Monday to Thursday only and from Friday to Sunday

While its not needed, it can help other mappers understand that there is no missing information and that the hours are completely tagged.

opening_hours= Mo closed; We-Th open; Fr-Su closed

Is open the whole day from Wednesday to Thursday only. The rest of the days are closed.

With time

opening_hours= Sa [time]

Open on monday from within user inputted time.

This is the general format of the time a place is open for a specific weekday. In this case, Saturday.

opening_hours= Tu 10:00-12:00

Is open from 10:00-12:00 on every Tuesday. The rest of the days are assumed closed.

opening_hours= Mo closed; Tu-We 02:00-05:00; Th-Fr 03:00-05:00; Sa-Su open

Monday is closed. Tuesday to Wednesday is open from 2:00-5:00. Thursday to Friday is open from 3:00-5:00. Saturday and Sunday is open the whole day.

Here you can see multiple weekdays have different times, they are separated using the rule separator ";".

This is the most common tagging of poi's. As most of them don't have that much complex hour tagging.

Advanced

opening_hours= We[1]

Open the whole day only for the first Wednesday of every month.

opening_hours= We[-2]

Open the whole day only for the second to last Wednesday of every month.

opening_hours= We[1] 02:00-12:00; Sa-Su 02:00-12:00

Open from the first Wednesday of every month. But, every Saturday and Sunday is open from 2:00-12:00.

opening_hours= We[1] 011:00-12:00; We-Su 14:00-18:00

For the first Wednesday of a month, the place is open from 11:00-12:00. For the rest of the month and weeks, its open 14:00-18:00 from Wednesday to Sunday.
