Hi All, Nicolas and I were at meetings in Geneva last week. (Yes we owe you guys a much bigger write-up than that and will provide soon)
One of the meetings was about using space based information and crowd-sourcing hosted by UNOSAT. This was the second of such meetings, one of the ideas that came out of the first meeting was to do a simulation. The plan is on the weekend of December 3rd to do a simulation around a cyclone hitting Samoa. I think HOT should be involved in this. There is good satellite imagery over Samoa and people on the ground are participating in the simulation. We have also discussed with GISCorps the potential of working together on this. Is anyone interested in joining? Also if someone could lead this effort that would be wonderful. I'm most likely going to be on an island in Indonesia with minimal Internet so it will be difficult for me. I can help you get set-up with the others involved and further coordination leading up to the event though. Best, -Kate _______________________________________________ HOT mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
