Hello all, Since October last year, Bolivia has been hit with heavy flooding. 42.000 families are estimated to have been affected and 40 people have lost their lives.
Based on the request from Fernando Molina, who represents GeoBolivia/Vicepresidency and with information from Capitán Carlos Mariaca from the Viceministry of Defense (SINAGER/Defensa Civil) we used Pierre Béland's help to set up the following tasks: http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/419 (Trinidad, Beni) http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/417 (Chapare, Cochabamba) http://tasks.hotosm.org/job/418 (Ixiamas, La Paz) The idea is to get help with tracing buildings, waterways and roads. Any help will be greatly appreciated and used by the relevant authorities responding to the event. We will now extend the call for action to the relevant spanish speaking OSM mailing list and try to organice mapping parties for local volunteers. Thanks in advance, Ariel Núñez GFDRR Labs Global Facility For Disaster Reduction and Recovery The World Bank
