[HOT] Flooding in India and Nepal

[Peter Chin]

Hi Blake,

I think it would be good to start with roads and buildings along the Brahmaputra river and mapping the states of Assam and Bihar.  We'll also need to map Bangladesh and Bhutan too. The OCHA map shows that they're also affected by the floods: http://reliefweb.int/report/nepal/south-asia-flooding-humanitarian-snapshot-july-2016.   

I don't know the area, but maybe HOT members in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Bhutan can provide further advice?  Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Can you point me to a good source for AoI's for this crisis?

I can get some projects up asap. Also what you would consider most
useful first and foremost, roads? buildings? I tend to think roads.

Regards,
Blake
