You can add as much info as you want. One of the features of the system is to be able to easily submit a report (no login needed), once you have provided relief to certain areas, you can mark the report as "fixed" the icon will change to a blue check mark. You can "unfix" and "fix" a report anytime. This way we can monitor which areas need immediate concern. Another feature is you can monitor specific areas given a certain zoom level. For example, if your efforts are concentrated on areas around Dagupan City: http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/?lon=120.381&lat=16.05923&zoom=12&layers=BTTT You can get RSS reports for this area only: http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/osb-cgi/getRSSfeed?b=15.90708&t=16.21127&l=120.1441&r=120.61789 or if you have a GPS, you can download a GPX file showing locations of the report: http://osb.maps.jsintl.org/osb-cgi/getGPX?b=15.90708&t=16.21127&l=120.14411&r=120.61789&open=yes We can generate reports for you just let us know what specific info you need. Openstreetmap can also provide you with volunteer mapping services (to update the background map) and since the data (map and submitted reports) can be freely downloaded, we can create additional map-based information. Good luck and more power!
