>> Generally OpenStreetMap data is not updated frequently enough by mappers and database users for us to map temporary states (e.g. anything which lasts less than 6 months). Many database users will download a data extract for offline use and only update this every 3 months or so - see Maps.me for example, and perhaps facebook's  use of OpenStreetMap data.
