Hi everyone in the OSM Philippines community,
I'd like to introduce a new project Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team will
be working on in the Philippines, PhilAWARE. This is a local
installation of DisasterAWARE, a disaster risk reduction and integrated
early warning and decision support system that also incorporates many
data layers from OpenStreetMap. Over the past week, we've been working
here in Manila to set up this new project - there's an article on the
launch of the program in Manila at
https://www.pdc.org/philippines-drr-programs-kick-off-2019/.
Our new Country Manager in the Philippines is Nick Brown, and he'll be
working to set up our team & project in the Philippines. A number of you
will likely be in Dumaguete later this week; both Nick and Adityo
Dwijananto (from our Indonesia team) will be attending, to answer any
questions you might have and discuss more about this project - so please
feel free to chat to and ask any questions to Nick or Adityo!
We're very happy to finally be able to offer more support of the great
work that has been happening in the Philippines! Nick can be reached via
nick.br...@hotosm.org.
thanks,
Paul
