Unicode block traffic and map symbols

The Unicode block traffic and map symbols (Transport and Map Symbols, U + 1F680 to U + 1F6FF) contains icons that roughly maps are used or in traffic. They are predominantly of Japanese origin and therefore not generally for displaying traffic signs to the highway code suitable as in Germany , in Austria or in Switzerland and Liechtenstein are common.

Other symbols used in road traffic and on maps can be found in the Various symbols block .

The traffic and map symbols block was introduced in 2010 with Unicode 6.0 and, together with the various pictographic symbols and smileys blocks, forms the so-called emojis .
