Hi Maning,
NDRMC website has a lot of information about Typhoon Pablo but all of it is in
tabular format. (eg. affected provinces, municipalities, casualties, damaged
houses, etc etc).. One possible mapping work that we could do is to visualize
these tabular data in forms of maps. It is easier to understand these types of
information if it were in the form of maps. But I am also thinking on how we
can disseminate the map once we finish them.

Subject: Re: [talk-ph] Typhoon Pablo (Bopha)
Dear everyone,
Collecting some news related to the recent Typhoon Pablo/Bopha.
Provinces that was heavily affected are Compostela Valley and Davao
del Norte [0].
There are several crowdsourcing mapping initiatives happening around,
I listed them and other map resources in my blog [1].
If you are interested to participate in some initiatives, I urge you
to join the Crisis Mapper's Standby Task Force for geolocating and
classifying tweets and photos which will be used for UN's disaster
response [2 and 3].
Related to OSM, most of what was covered by Bing in Eastern Mindanao
has a good coverage for roads. However, one important natural feature
we sorely lack in these areas are natural features like rivers which
are important data for such kind of disasters. I encourage you all to
include river and waterways in your mapping list.
Of course there is the usual donations for relief operations.
