Hello, I followed the recent discussion on the OSM France mailing list.
Maybe there is value in creating a namespace for refugee_site instead of place=refugee_site, especially if this tag will be sometimes be added to nodes or areas which have other attributes not directly to being a refugee site, like a city, town, district, building complex, etc. Segregating all refugee_site pertinent information within a "mixed" purpose node/area might be useful when extracting data using overpass. If place=refugee_site will always be a standalone entity, a namespace probably wouldn't add much value. Example ... refugee_site = yes/formal/informal refugee_site:for = internally_displaced/refugee_only refugee_site:operator = UNHCR/Red Cross/etc. refugee_site:duration = permanent/temporary refugee_site:population = 500,000 Best regards, Stuart On Wed, 25 Mar 2020 at 15:23, Manon Viou <m_v...@cartong.org> wrote: > Hello, > > The proposed feature *place=refugee_site to provide a way for mapping > places sheltering refugees and/or internally displaced persons fleeing the > effects of a natural disaster or a political crisis for example* has > already been debated and voted on from 30-01-2020 to 17-03-2020.
