Hi all. *cross-posting as this intersects OSM in general, HOT and Haiti.* There's a nice article out today on Medium.com <http://j.mp/medium-osmhaiti>(featured as Editor's pick) that tells a condensed long story of OSM in Haiti from the project's beginning in London to quake response to mapping TapTaps (the informal bus system of the country) to HOT's work with USAID/OTI in St. Marc and the North.
Slightly related to the article: I pieced together some map comparisons highlightling different aspects of OSM vs. other maps in Haiti / in general to a Hackpad (http://j.mp/mapcomparisons ). I realized that I've had many situations where having map comparisons at my fingertips would've been good. I'll be adding selected comparisons to this page over time. All current one's are just live links (no static screenshots). The comparisons are also done with the BBBike.org's modified Geofabrik Mapcomparison tool that has a huge number of different OSM renderings as well as more proprietary map options for comparison (+ the possibility to compare practically(?) as many maps as you want). This "multi-comparison" option is great!
