Hi Jaako,
It is surely possible to do such actions. Between two crisis like this one,
people can surely propose to the HOT list to contribute to tasks for vulnerable
areas.

Hi all,
To the worry of mapping areas: Could it make sense to make use of these kinds
of situations to map some vulnerable areas that aren't currently necessarily
suffering an active crisis?
Nicaragua's Caribbean coast regularly suffers from rainy season damages
(including this year) and lot of the area is quite undermapped if not virgin
territory.
There are obviously a lot of similar places in the world.
Perhaps we could build a sort of catalogue of areas (with hires Bing) that
could be mapped when someone has resources for that?
Create a stack of tasking manager jobs catalogued in a wiki page that people
could simply grab when "excess" mapping capacity become available?
Just a thought,
-Jaakko
