Hi everyone, Please find an update on HOT's work for Cyclone Idai & ways to support in this blog: https://www.hotosm.org/updates/cyclone-idai-how-can-you-help-by-mapping/
I particularly wanted to highlight these two quotes from those using the data: Medecins Sans Frontieres: “It is now almost a reflex for MSF teams in an emergency setting to ask for GIS support for epidemiology response by mapping out cases to see where patients come from... They also need GIS support for water and sanitation assessments, to map out where the water points and latrines are.” IFRC: “IFRC will use this content to support the Mozambique Red Cross (CVM) to deliver assistance to 200,000 people with a focus on the following areas of focus: shelter, health, water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, livelihood and basic needs, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), protection, gender and inclusion.” Mapping tasks: https://tasks.hotosm.org/contribute?difficulty=ALL&text=Idai Questions: http://slack.hotosm.org/ Thanks, Rebecca -- *Rebecca Firth* Director, Community & Partnerships rebecca.fi...@hotosm.org <tyler.radf...@hotosm.org> @RebeccaFirthy *Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team* *Using OpenStreetMap for Humanitarian Response & Economic Development* web <http://hotosm.org/> | twitter <https://twitter.com/hotosm> | facebook <https://www.facebook.com/hotosm> | donate <http://donate.hotosm.org/>
