This complementary tag appear to denote whether a building is built on stilts, and seems similar to building=stilt_house, but not necessarily a residential building ("house").

Due to the nature of the construction of these buildings on piles, this tag imply location=overhead and with local knowledge, specifying a positive number layer=* is helpful.
