To start, we can identify the affected areas, and check on sources of data to 
improve the map.


This is the region? 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=30.09&lon=79.3&zoom=8&layers=M Looks very 
mountainous. 
Quick spot checks on Bing imagery, it's high resolution. Other sources?


If we can identify a bounding box for the region, then can set up a job on the 
tasking server http://tasks.hotosm.org/
