Problem.

The present description does not distinguish this '*amenity=refugee_site*' from amenity=social_facility and social_facility=shelter.


I would think amenity=refugee_site is an area set aside for the non-temporary residential use of refugees. *
*

The meaning of 'temporary' is not stated in the wiki for social_facility=shelter so there will be some uncertainty as to where teh different lies.

Possibly the 'area' can be used? A**social_facility=shelter could from the wording be considered a single structure? The 'amenity=refugee_site' could be stipulated as many structures i.e. mare than 3?

We will restart RFC period if needed, let me know ! we haven’t received much comments on the latest proposal modifications, please let us know if this works for you or if amendments have to be done ( Proposed features/Refugee Site Location 2 <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Refugee_Site_Location_2>)

Hello all,

We have modified the proposed features/Refugee Site Location 2 <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Refugee_Site_Location_2> according to discussions regarding how to best tag places sheltering refugee and/or internally displace persons. Thank you to the contributors who help finding a solution to have a consistent tagging in place for refugee location.
We are now suggesting to use the tag *amenity=refugee_site *
The tag can be used alternatively on nodes or on areas:

  * If the extent of the site is difficult to identify (proximity to
    other villages, suburban area, etc.) it is recommended to use a
    node.
  * If the extent of the site can be clearly identified from the
    imagery or field data collection, it is recommended to use an
    area. Please note this extent does not have to match the
    official boundary of a camp (which doesn’t necessarily coincide
    to its physical limitations), as defined by government and
    specialized agencies, for which a dedicated tag can be used.

Both approaches can be completed by mapping the landuse=residential of the area and if appropriate a tag place (place=neighbourhood, place=suburb, place=village) can be added in the area of the refugee site.

Please have a look at this new proposal and share your comments quickly if you have any. *We will close RFC period soon*.

Best regards,

Manon
