Hi John,
you're right, it's difficult to evaluate the impact since the data can
be used afterwards in so many different ways. But what I'm interested in
is the initial phase, like e.g. if MSF or USAID are implementing mapping
activities together with HOT, what is the outcome of these projects? For
what are they using the data excatly, how do they implement it in their
workflow and so on.
To evaluate the education side of the local contributers would be also
kinda interesting to see
Greetings,

I think part of the problem for this is the multiple uses made of OSM
maps. They might be mapped by one group but used by another and some
charities using them are very small and how would you measure this?
Including the education side of having locals contribute to the map?

Hello HOT-Community
I’m wondering if there are any papers dealing with the evaluation
of using Open Data (especially OSM) for humanitarian aid, DRR and/or
economic development?
Are there any plans to evaluate HOT-Activations like e.g. in Nepal,
Ecuador, etc. and it’s impact on the local work for humanitarian
aid workers? I think this could be kinda interesting also for new
mappers to know how the data is being used.
