Editor's Notes

  • #2 Hi I am Shoaib Burq, an OpenStreetMap enthusiast and contributor. I am also a founding member of the Aust-NZ OSGeo Chapter. This talk is going to give you a very brief overview of how the open street map (osm) community organised themselves across the planet to help the first responders on the ground in Haiti and helped save lives.
  • #5 The earthquake occurred at 21:53 UTC / 16:53 Local (-5 GMT) just south of Port-au-Prince 15 km SW of Port-au-Prince
  • #7 Wiki started - request by mikel to start contributing map data.
  • #8 Less than 12 hours later - this
  • #11 Day before
  • #12 haiti.osm. 2009 01 14 18:09:00
  • #13 2010 02 05
  • #14 This is the view of the mapping in progress
  • #17 The data being created was specifically designed to suit disaster response.
