CJ, et al.:
For the data models now and future, while we are looking at hospitals, I would also anticipate a need for locations/status of sensitive/captive/vulnerable populations, e.g. schools, orphanages, nursing homes and other community/group homes, prisons and so on. Please post any thoughts on data models & tagging here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php?title=Humanitarian_OSM_Tags David G.

These are available as a presets file (xml) in JOSM. That file is attached. So, if you are taking on this task, please use the Health facilities presets. These presets are based on years of discussions with Subject Matter Experts and are well-known in the UN and other humanitarian communities (though we have streamlined them for this operation). Soon these presets will be posted as a live xml document that you can link your JOSM to, however, for the moment, I am attaching them here. AN URGENT NEED in addtion to the hospitals is to clean up the road type tags to correspond with the humanitarian presets. Right now the tags in the OSM road data are messy and make it difficult for people in the field to symbolize. --cj ---------------------------------------------------------------- CJ Hendrix GIS & Remote Sensing Projects Manager UAE Mobile: +971 50 142 5958 Haiti Mobile: +509 3656 7993 US Mobile: +1 510 384 6797 Skype: hendrix.cj On Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 2:40 AM, Mark Prutsalis <globali...@gmail.com> wrote: We urgently need volunteers to do some creative research to find the coordinates - latitude and longitude in degree decimals - for about 100 hospitals in Haiti.
