bollard node A street lamp that is an integral component in a barrier=bollard.
angled_mast node A pole that starts out straight but then is angled. This might be to space off the lampshade from a building in case the pole is too close.
bent_mast node A pole that starts out straight but then bends to "reach" over the street. The lower straight part of the pole may help with vehicle clearance of the lamp.
high_mast node A tall pole (greater than 30m) with lighting mounted on a ring at the top. Typically found near motorway interchanges.
straight_mast node A pole with a light at the very top of the post.
suspended node The light is suspended over the street by a wire. In the case of an electric lamp, the wire may be the power source.
wall node The light is attached to a wall.
