Comparisons
between OpenStreetMap and Google Maps for either Tacloban, Philippines
or Geckedou, Guinea clearly show that we should use OpenStreeMap in such crisis
context as the two HOT Activations.
The default basemap should be the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap style which is
more adapted for the humanitarian
context.
An other aspect is the data collected and the possibility to assure that this
data be licensed OpenData.Such Crisis Data tools should be designed by assuring
that the data license will not be contaminated by the fact that people may have
used the Google Map layer to geolocate data.
The integration of an OpenStreetMap editor directly in this tool would also
greatly contribute to a better ecosystem with OpenStreetMap.

too bad you are posting to an openstreetmap list and advertise for
google maps here: http://crisis.net/explore/
would that be possible for you to switch to osm?
