The next to the last paragraph: "Resilience is built by communities and agencies before, during and after a disaster. Resilience includes the work of volunteers, such as those in northern England who, following recent flooding, organised to clean streets, clear debris, and distribute aid to those in need."
Well said. The HOT ID team has worked across multiple levels of government, with universities, and community groups helps extend public services to where they are in most need. This article does a good job of making the connection between open mapping and responsive civil institutions. Hard to overemphasize that point.
