  Overview_Description:
    Entity_and_Attribute_Overview: The tag is the street name for labeling purposes. So if a route it may only include the route number. In addition  Chamorro language prefixes of Chalan (street) or Kayon or Kayen (trail) describe the type of street somewhat. It is usually a name given by the Mayors but not at this time being assigned to features in the convention of their description.
