I see where this is coming from. The problem is that there are other shelters, like roadside shelters that have nothing to do with buses. Like this one:

It's a lay-by with gas, food, etc. and there is a shelter from sun and rain. Nothing to do with mountains or hiking. Perhaps this needs to be tagged differently, but in any case, even a mountain shelter shouldn't show up on the map as a campground. Perhaps 0x6402 building would be more appropriate? Label=shelter as well?
What about tourism=picnic_site, fireplace=yes, covered=yes? The default style already translates it into 0x4a00.
I don't know what to say to this. I didn't create the node, or indeed the whole rest area. Thailand is full of roadside shelters, usually quaint wooden constructions and I can see how anybody who wants to tag one would use shelter, as there is no other obvious choice, certainly not in JOSM.
I saw some tourism=lean_to when fixing a multipolygon issue in a natural
tourism= is not an obvious choice, as most shelters have nothing to do with tourism. Also, a lean-to is something attached to another building, as the name suggests. In any case, amenity=shelter in the img file becomes "Unknown type (0x2b05, point)" in GPSMapEdit. Why in the map this becomes a camp ground is beyond me, but it's a bug.
Incidentally, the area highway=services on the GPS map turns into a POI "Exit Unknown" with an interesting properties page. Check it out @ N14.85751 E100.09283
This is probably because you are using add-pois-to-areas. The default
I think you are correct here (Lambertus certainly does), although the POI should be something more intelligent. Kind regards, Peter.
