Dear HOT,

There have been heavy rains and landslides on Ambon (1) in Maluku
Islands area of Indonesia (2).

Currently there is some imagery available in the Ambon area and HOT is
investigating other possible imagery sources.

We have set up a task(3).

The goal of the mapping is to have a firm idea of where roads and
buildings are to plan relocation of people.

Best,

-Kate
