If a refugee site has a well established name (and, unfortunately, there are many examples all over the world), I don't see why it can't have a "place" tag.

Hi, my question is whether this then rather would be something for the "place" tag? Or did we maybe have that discussion already? --Lukas *Gesendet:* Freitag, 17.

And I think the “small”/”large” discussion is going the wrong direction… The new tag we want to propose is to map refugee camps or as it’s seems better to say in English now : refugee sites. So we want to map *human settlement*. The social_facility=shelter tag is very suitable to map single or individual building or a small group of buildings like a refugee center, an accommodation center or a care and hosting center for refugees. But (according to many people now) the social_facility=shelter tag is not suitable to map refugee camps that are human settlements, populated places where hundreds or thousands people live. That’s why we propose to create a new value for the amenity tag : amenity=refugee_site, to map human settlement where refugees can find protection. kind regards, Manon Le 17 avril 2020 à 13:03, Warin <61sundow...@gmail.com> a écrit : On 17/4/20 5:29 am, Manon Viou wrote: Hello, According to Martin and Warin, the difference between large and small refugee site is not clear enough, Martin suggested to use population capacity, for instance less than 200 people fro small refugee site, Warin suggested to use number of square meters, For what I have observed, small facilities sheltering refugee (for instance: refugee centers, accommodation center, care and hosting center, church) are not exactly what we can call refugee site. the difference, beyond the number of building, number of population or square meter, is quite obvious. ?? How is it 'obvious'??? I have no idea of what that 'obvious' thing is! Is it really necessary to set a precise rule ? At the moment there is nothing that can be used to distinguish between the two. Suggestion have been made on the number of buildings, number of people and the area. Please tell us how you distinguish between them. I would rather suggest to share some example (like the ones mentioned above) in order to help contributors to decide if it rather an amenity=refugee_site or a social_facility=shelter. Examples are fine. But there must be a statement in words of the difference between them.

That's why we do not suggest to add temporary/permanent options. Manon In which case the description for amenity=social_facility + social_facility=shelter is not correct. If it is to be done on area then specify the number of square meters rather than the number of buildings??? Buildings can be a of different sizes and capacities. An area could be more consistent as to the number of people. Imagery may not be up to date so counting buildings may not be possible.
