We've supported humanitarian efforts and built capacities on every continent. Starting this month, there are almost 40 Haitians working on OSM full-time supporting the cholera response as the result of efforts by the community. We've incorporated HOT as a formal organization and are in the final stretch of obtaining 501c3 certification. Thanks to a partnership with SPOT we have increased access to raw imagery and there are ongoing conversations with a few other providers that will hopefully provide an even greater
range of options soon. But there's a lot of work left to be done. Many goals which we've set out for ourselves that we haven't yet reached. The great news is that there are a lot of people who
would like to be more involved.<br><br>A few of us thought an open conference call would let members of the community share what they've been working on, prioritize a few projects that could use some extra hands, and find some general consensus on how to best move forward.<br><br><span><span>Here's a draft agenda. Please use this wiki page [<a target="_blank" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Humanitarian_OSM_Team/February2011ConfCall">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Humanitarian_OSM_Team/February2011ConfCall</a>] to add items or make comments/suggestions.</span></span><br><br>- Update on Haiti<br>- Other Responses (Colombia, Pakistan, Cote d'Ivoire, Brazil)<br>- SPOT and other imagery providers<br>- The Humanitarian Data Model, ETL Services, and Symbology<br>- Website, help with design and content needed<br>- The HOT Wiki pages, need updating<br>- Documentation and Training Materials need review and
translation<br>- Activation
Protocols for coordination and interacting with other responders<br>- Simulation/Training Sessions. Review of previous (MapAction, Standby Task Force, Camp Roberts), and further possibilities.<br>- Technical Needs, there are many coding opportunities (Collaboration tools. Toolkits for setting up wiki pages in activation. Tasking server. Imagery portioner. Mobile data collection. Mapsomatic customization)<br><br><span><span>The call will be on Wednesday, February 16th at 12:00pm EST.
