(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. <br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div
