Greetings HOT community,
After initial size-up last night, we have today received a request from UNOSAT and have decided to Activate to fulfill that request for buildings in the area of impact from the Iran-Iraq Earthquake. The USGS recorded it as a 7.3 magnitude around 1800 UTC yesterday (Nov 12th). Since initial reports, the PAGER report <https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us2000bmcg#pager> has been upgraded to a red alert for significant casualties. Unfortunately, much of the area that is populated is rather dense and difficult mapping so we are going to utilize the TM3 functionality to restrict to intermediate or advanced mappers. To become an intermediate and/or advanced mapping, keep mapping and you'll get the status as you progress. Head to tasks.hotosm.org to help map! To become an Activator and be part of the coordination, visit: http://courses.hotosm.org/ and start the Activation Essentials course. Best regards, =Russ Russell Deffner russell.deff...@hotosm.org Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) http://hotosm.org <http://hotosm.org/>
