>> Dear HOT team,
>>
>> I want to hereby inform you that GIScience group of Heidelberg University
>> <http://www.geog.uni-heidelberg.de/gis/index_en.html> set up an
>> OpenRouteService Disaster Map for Ecuador:
>> http://openls.geog.uni-heidelberg.de/disaster/.
>> The map and graph will be updated regularly.
>> As in earlier cases for the disasters in Nepal or Haiti the additional
>> *OpenRouteService* SOS - route profile currently considers passable and
>> impassable tagged ways and dynamically adjusts the graph weights of OSM
>> streets accordingly.
>>
>> ORS also provides an Accessibility Analysis Service for a given location,
>> the possibility to export GPS tracks to be used offline in mobile device
>> and the interactive Avoid Feature Area Tool (in case areas are severely
>> effected by debris and not accessible at all). These features are thus
>> potentially valuable for Search and Rescue (SAR) units.
>>
>> For more information also see:
>> http://k1z.blog.uni-heidelberg.de/2016/04/20/disaster-openrouteservice-for-ecuador/

>> Hopefully this resource will be useful and we are open to feedbacks
>> towards improvement.
