who notified this alert to the Crisismappers list, wrote back to my email<br>
regarding most populated affected area after Lichuan Earthquake. So we can<br>
create a TM jobs now based on this area (see the uMap link) with the Spot5<br>
Imagery. Someone interested?<br>

Hi Severin:<br>
<br>
Thank you for the links I think it covers the most populated areas. It<br>
would be great if the following Provinces could be mapped as well as 1.<br>
they are vulnerable to disasters and 2. there were several earthquakes that<br>
happened in recent years.<br>
Gansu Province<br>
Sichuan Province<br>
Yunnan Province<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
