[HOT] Ebola Outbreak Guinea - West Africa, Mapping to support CartONG - MSF-CH - Red Cross

Wed Apr 2 13:54:36 UTC 2014

Thanks Sylvie

This will help have better population estimates since it removes important surfaces as habitations.

And thanks to MSF for this message.  Seeing images of the Geckedou temporary hospital, makes me think how important it is for our community to accompany MSF and IFRC in this humanitarian action.

Hi Everyone,

Two more things from field : 

- Regarding population: huts are build with bamboo/wood and only used for shadow during day and sometimes for storage. In both villages and urban aera.

- "A big THANK YOU from the emergency team in Gueckedou and Macenta to all of you guys in HOT/OSM! 
Your work speed and quality was far beyond our expectations. MapsKits are already distributed to the field teams and received an enthousiastic welcome from our staff, both international and local. As people carry on fighting against Ebola, it is heart-warming to feel presence and support from the international mapping community. Thanks to everyone!" .  MSF GIS Field Off.

@Nicolas,
Good idea for sure, we may wait some days to get this.

Hi Sylvie,

Thanks for sharing, would be great if shareable to see pictures of those masks in action in Guinea for coordination or direct field work, it's always rewarding to see those materials directly used in the last kilometers from affected populations
