Hello 

I was interested in hazard analysis software INASAFE. 
Tried to connect with Microsoft team 
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/2018_Kerala_Floods,_India#Microsoft> 
for the building layer results. 

Flood analysis by Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team,Indonesia
DAM SAFETY AND PUBLIC PROTECTION: INASAFE 
<https://www.hotosm.org/projects/dam-safety-and-public-protection-through-inasafe/>
Please see the video. 
InaSAFE Promo <http://data.inasafe.org/Movies/InaSAFE_Promo_EN.mp4>  
http://inasafe.org/

We try as a group. They release the data in ODGL which can be imported to 
OSM. 

Thanks,
naveenpf
