Hi, Again big thanks to Mikel.
Here's for beta review our OSM-PH Post-Disaster Response Reporting: http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/ This webmap reporting scheme hopes to gather info on the post-disaster rebuilding efforts. Features: - Any visitor can add a geocoded report on what needs to be done within the area (garbage collection, drainage clearing, etc.) - Other users can comment on the posted problem - Other users can mark the problem as fixed or re-open the report - Download the points as GPX format which can be integrated to a GIS system or a GPS for navigation - Monitor reported bugs in given boundingbox via rss feeds i.e. reports in Marikina http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/osb-cgi/getRSSfeed?b=14.60541&t=14.65955&l=121.06386&r=121.15141 Other tasks: - monitor and update reports - create pages compiling reports according to type and admin jurisdiction - coordinate dissemination of reports to concerned agencies who can help fix the problem. If the group feels that yet-another-webmap is useful for assisting the recovery efforts of this disaster, please disseminate this info. I already communicated this webmap facility to the typhoonondoy people, I hope they find it useful as well. cheers, maning On 10/1/09, Mikel Maron <mikel_ma...@yahoo.com> wrote: > As requested, I've set up an OpenStreetBugs instance for collecting reports > in the Phillipines > If anyone wants to work on the code, contacting me directly, and I can give > you credentials to access the site. > > http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/ > > I totally agree that we don't have an OSM agenda.
