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. Hi Dion
I did not save OSM Planet files while coordinating for the Hayian Activation. 
But the Overpass Query platform might be an interesting platform to prepare. 
You can extract history for a specific date. You can also either extract all 
nodes, ways and relations or select some layers providing the specific tags you 
want.
The link below will provide you the script to extract for highways layer on 
2013-11-17T00:00:00Z (00:00:00Z=midnight).

Query with Overpass is trial an error. If you click on the Execute button, the 
data is provided in the browser. If you choose a zone that is too large, you 
will have memory problems. If you have a time out , choose a smaller zone, 
zooming in. 

To avoid memory problems, the best is to export the data. You can select to 
export the data either to JOSM or the Overpass API. In this case, you will be 
requeste to save the file named interpreter on your computer. Simply rename it 
adding the extension .osm
you could also select other features, replacing the ["highway"] tag
["amenity"="school"][landuse"][building].
If you want all features, simply remove the ["highway"] tag in the query.

Dont hesitate to contact me personnaly for more infos.
