Essentially I have geospatial analysts that are immediately deployable, and
GeoSHAPE (geoshape.org) that provides a user friendly portal as well as GIS
services.

For this first demonstration, I'd like to simulate a single analyst
deploying with the initial US response, setting up a geospatial portal in
an offline environment. Hi Dion
I did not save OSM Planet files while coordinating for the Hayian Activation. But the Overpass Query platform might be an interesting platform to prepare. You can extract history for a specific date. You can also either extract all nodes, ways and relations or select some layers providing the specific tags you want.
The link below will provide you the script to extract for highways layer on 2013-11-17T00:00:00Z (00:00:00Z=midnight).

Query with Overpass is trial an error. If you click on the Execute button, the data is provided in the browser. If you choose a zone that is too large, you will have memory problems. If you have a time out , choose a smaller zone, zooming in. 

To avoid memory problems, the best is to export the data. You can select to export the data either to JOSM or the Overpass API. In this case, you will be requeste to save the file named interpreter on your computer. Simply rename it adding the extension .osm
you could also select other features, replacing the ["highway"] tag
["amenity"="school"][landuse"][building].
If you want all features, simply remove the ["highway"] tag in the query.

Dont hesitate to contact me personnaly for more infos.
