FYI – please feel free to distribute to your networks: ---- The Sahana Software Foundation have a site up to support the Floods Response in Pakistan: http://pakistan.sahanafoundation.org Although there are a number of information management tools providing resources on the Pakistan Flood Response, Sahana specialises in providing open data which means that instead of just providing narrative documents which need to be manually searched for the required data, it can provide the raw data, in various formats, including on maps, to help the relief efforts and longer term recovery. Sahana is built on an open source Rapid Application Development framework and supported by a global community of volunteers, which means that new features can quickly developed in response to changing requirements on-the-ground. For more information on how you can either user Sahana or help contribute to the effort, please visit: http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/wiki/Pakistan Or join: sahana-pakistan-2...@googlegroups.com Michael Howden Sahana Software Foundation *Sahana Software Foundation mission is to help alleviate human suffering by giving emergency managers, disaster response professionals and communities access to the information that they need to better prepare for and respond to disasters through the development and promotion of free and open source software and open standards.* * * -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Sahana-Eden" group.
