<div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span><span>Ushahidi, and others, are geocoding reports via OpenStreetMap. We want this to be as easy and accurate for them as possible. GetLatLon (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.getlatlon.com/">http://www.getlatlon.com/</a>) is a nice little site to do this, but uses Google Maps. Would someone be able to clone the site to use OSM, centered on Haiti?</span></span><br><br>Thanks<br>Mikel<br><div> </div>== Mikel Maron ==<br><span><span><a target="_blank" href="http://mapkibera.org/">http://mapkibera.org/</a></span></span><br>+254 (0) 724899738<br>mikel@osmfoundation.org<div><br></div>
