Hi Dion,
The OpenStreetMap database (where most all of our mapping work goes) is always available, however the data is always changing, so depending on the activity level of mapping since Haiyan – it’s probably changed at lot since then. On another note, myself and the HOT Executive Director helped the FEMA Corps to mapping for Typhoon Dolphin previously; please send me direct message if you’d like to discuss. Thank you, =Russ Russell Deffner <mailto:russell.deff...@hotosm.org> russell.deff...@hotosm.org Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) <http://hotosm.org/> http://hotosm.org From: Dion Houston [mailto:dionhous...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, April 29, 2016 2:34 AM To: hot Subject: [HOT] Haiyan HOT extracts? Hi all, I'm preparing a demonstration of a capability I'd like to deploy immediately for US military disaster relief operations in the Pacific. Essentially I have geospatial analysts that are immediately deployable, and GeoSHAPE (geoshape.org) that provides a user friendly portal as well as GIS services. For this first demonstration, I'd like to simulate a single analyst deploying with the initial US response, setting up a geospatial portal in an offline environment. The team is able to see basic (our standard CADRG) maps as well as information provided by NGOs or other sources and create updates. The GIS analyst is able to provide basic analysis as appropriate (e.g. flood analysis) using the same data. The equipment is two laptops, one acting as a server, one a client. For a basis of the scenario, I thought Haiyan would be very appropriate, as it was in our geographical region, and the U.S. had a large response, so presumably there is significant data on it. What I'm specifically asking are: - Are .osm.pbf extracts of the HOT activation for Haiyan still available? I looked on the Wiki page and didn't see any obvious links to it. Preferably an early extract as it most matches my scenario. - Are there any other sources of data that would be good to incorporate? What I'm specifically thinking is data that relief teams gathered to prioritize resources. I found some interesting Twitter data here: http://giscorps.maps.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/basicviewer/index.html?appid=cf6031322a334cc3bfe3f9a74f23b384 That I've gone ahead and downloaded as well as the OCHA symbols. Thanks in advance. If I can show the usefulness of this capability and can get some limited funding, I think I can bring some good value add to the community. Dion
