Hi All, The American Red Cross GIS Team is constantly looking for new ways to improve our workflows and learn from the OpenStreetMap and FOSS4G communities. The vast majority of the GIS analysis and map making we do is done using FOSS4G tools and we strive to be effective contributors as well as consumers.
We've supported the development of Portable OSM (POSM < https://github.com/AmericanRedCross/posm> as an affordable (can be run on hardware costing less than $300) solution to make OpenStreetMap, OpenMapKit, and Field Papers available for deployments in connectivity-limited environments. POSM consolidates cloud-based tools into a portable server that acts as a temporary local data hub for digital mapping, surveying, and field media collection. The next stage of development is working with the folks at Stamen to incorporate OpenDroneMap (for processing UAV imagery) into the stack of software available for installation on a POSM. We'd love to hear your thoughts, concerns, use-cases, and other comments. Send us an email or leave an issue on the POSM GitHub repository < https://github.com/americanredcross/posm/issues>. - Dan Joseph
