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?
