Re: [HOT] Super Typhoon Hagupit (International Name Ruby)

[Rafael Avila Coya]

Hi all:

Bing/Mapbox OSM limits seem outdated, at least for Samar island (the one
I checked). Now they cover many more areas of the island.

I modified the limits for Samar, but would be interesting to
check/modify them for other areas that could be affected.

Cheers,

Rafael.

Dear OSM-PH mappers,

Just a note that we are monitoring the situation as it happens.  If there
is a need to respond in the coming days we will inform the list.
We also started talks with government contacts of our willingness to
assist.  For now keep safe and keep us posted on the local developments in
your area.

Re: [HOT] Super Typhoon Hagupit (International Name Ruby)

[Mark Cupitt]

Hi Andrew, Thanks great links. I think Maning and I are good candidates to
lead this, he is in Manila, I am in Negros, down south.

I agree and think it will swing towards the north. The track i sent is from
a site called http://Typhoon2000.com, he has been tracking Philippine
Typhooons for years and is located in Bicol. (So we may get first hand
accounts)

It is also worth watching with Wundergorund as the local knowledge on the
tracks kicks in.

I also agree that flooding will be the major issue the way it looks now.

I will start a HOT Wiki Page today for this with the basics as well. It
will be somewhere to put all the information in one place.

Hi Pierre

Yep, I think the imagery assessment on what is currently available is the
first step. We can adjust as the track

Re: [HOT] Super Typhoon Hagupit (International Name Ruby)

[Pierre Béland]

Thanks Mark.
There are presently two possible scenarios. It either hit Philippines or turn 
right  and only graze the country. At this point, this is the time to look at 
the various options if Philippines is hardly hit. 

As we know, imagery is an essential element of a fast response and it is hard 
to obtain good satellite imagery in such Meteo related disasters.  Satellite 
Imagery taken a few days after Haiyan / for post-disaster assessment were of 
very poor quality.

Would there be any possibility to obtain images taken from airplanes or should 
we consider Civil Drones as an option to produce rapidly both pre and post 
imagery for the towns that should be most hit?.
If civil drones were an option to consider, are the any Philippines teams 
identified that could produce drone imagery, that are ready to deploy rapidly? 
Or, should we look at international teams?
Should OSM plan again to do some post-imagery assessement?, what categories to 
use?  Humanitarian organizations should also understand that assessments made 
from imagery are to identify the priority zones and not to make individual 
bulding assesment. Building damage assessments should be done by field teams. 
There is also the necessary coordination. If many organizations participate, we 
should avoid duplications, with two organizations covering the same geographic 
zone.

Thanks for the heads up Mark.  It is definitely good to start watching
these things as soon as possible and planning the response.  Below is
a link to Jeff Masters most recent blog post about the typhoon; Jeff
is an expert on hurricanes/typhoons and his analysis pre-Haiyan was
what allowed us to focus on Tacloban before the storm even hit.  The
second link is to the Wunderground tracking page for the storm itself
showing lots of useful info, and the third link is to the 'Wundermap'
with the tropical storm layer turned on.

http://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=2871

http://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/western-pacific/2014/Super-Typhoon-Hagupit

http://wxug.us/1m0l5

According to his reading of the situation, as well as the results of
the various model runs it is looking like it will be a catergory 4 or
5 when it hits the Philippines (Haiyan was a cat 5 at landfall).
There are some positive signs though: wind shear is expected to pick
up which will weaken the storm and the waters are not as warm as when
Haiyan struck; both positive signs.  For us I think the most relevant
part of the blog is the following:

"There is less heat energy available in the ocean for Hagupit, and
wind shear is expected to rise to the high range on Friday as strong
upper-level winds tear at the storm. Heavy rains, not high winds and
storm storm surge, will likely be the greatest threat for the
Philippines from Hagupit."

Heavy rains means flooding, and it means landslides.  The Phillipines
is a mountainous region so landslides are a possibility on slopes,
especially where farming/deforestation have happened.  I would say at
this point, making sure the major waterways are traced in OSM would be
the highest priority until we know more accurately where it will make
landfall.

This will likely be an event that we end up activating for.  We should
start figuring out who will lead the activation and start making
contact with our humanitarian contacts regarding their likely
response.  Since Pierre and I are still on the ebola activation it
probably doesn't make sense for us to lead this one, but we can
certainly offer help/guidance to anyone interested in stepping up to
lead the HOT response.

Fortunately we mapped a lot of the potentially affected area during
Haiyan, but this one looks to be swinging more to the north than that
one did.  That is good, since the map is pretty good in the north, but
bad because the reason the map is better is that is where most of the
population is.

This is another opportunity to help out.  Let's get to it, and show
the world what we can do.  :)
