I'm kind of new here so I wasn't around for Haiti. Is there a general "here is how to help map disaster areas" page on the wiki? I would be willing to help out but the mapping I have done so far here in the US is a little different thanks to TIGER data that at least gives you a point to start from. It would be helpful to give some guidance on how to go about mapping a blank area that you have no personal knowledge of. And of course a link to that from the project-of-the-week page wouldn't hurt either.
This is a good start although some of it is Haiti specific: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Humanitarian_OSM_Team/HOT_Package Seems like something HOT would want to put together. Or have they already and my searches just aren't finding it?
