Hi Roger,
Our Disaster Mapping program is guided by a similar protocol (I’m pretty sure
DG’s has bits from ours ;) You can get info here:
https://www.hotosm.org/projects/hot_training_center
The short version is we have an Activation Working Group that coordinates our
response. In the case of Hawaii, the local mappers pretty much took care of
things without needing an HOT activation. However, we almost always support in
some way and helping with imagery is something we can do.
Best bet to just chat with folks and see what might work is to join our Slack:
http://slack.hotosm.org/ either the #disaster-mapping channel or #imagery-coord
would do. Or you can email activat...@hotosm.org <mailto:activat...@hotosm.org>
to direct message the working group.
Thanks for asking, happy to help!

Subject: [HOT] activating Kilauea, HI area
Open Street Map team,
What is the best way to ask this group to activate an area for a disaster?
In Digital Globe’s disaster activation protocol, and it says that the listed
partners will leverage the open imagery and data made available (Open Street
Map is included) and to solicit them for feedback after an emergency.

We at ITDRC are working with the Hawaii Tracker group on providing
communications tools so that they can upload their pictures of the lava flow.
As you might guess, however, this is a painfully slow process and we were
exploring ways that we might accelerate this with more up-to-date satellite
pictures of the area.
Could someone point me in the right direction to make a request?
Rog
P.S. Those needing more information can email me (rrus...@itdrc.org
<mailto:rrus...@itdrc.org> ) , and I can loop in the right people at Hawaii
Tracker I’m dealing with. There are also two main ways we openly collaborate –
FB and Telegram.
FB – Hawaii Tracker - https://www.facebook.com/groups/hawaiitracker/
Telegram – Hawaii Tracker (general discussion) - https://t.me/hawaiitracker
Telegram – Hawaii Tracker (tech people) - http://bit.ly/2LLNRvH (messages here
are relayed into a ITDRC member slack channel)
