Congratulations Humberto!

Miriam, you might inquire with Ahasanul Hoque on this list (copied here).
Bangladesh has a long tradition of storm shelters for cyclones and he’s
very active in the OSM-Bangladesh community. I’m not sure whether they’ve
mapped the shelters but if they have I’m sure he’ll have good ideas.

OSM-Philippines might also have some ideas. The Philippines Government’s
Project NOAH has been mapping areas of the country for disaster preparedness
<http://blog.noah.dost.gov.ph/2016/04/08/map-your-community-in-osm-with-project-noah/>
and may have mapped typhoon shelters as a part of that. Maning Sambale on
this list (copied here) can probably connect you to the right people.

If you all start a github / wiki page it would go a long way! I like the
one Humberto provided from Ecuador, perhaps we can build out from there. It
already captures a lot of the data standards adopted during the Nepal
Earthquake, if I’m not mistaken.

Hi Veronica,

Thanks a lot for the suggestions, actually they are mentioning we can do a
pilot in Veracruz because is one of the States for damages every year. I
will mention your points :)

Hi Humberto,

Great news!!! Congratulations for the proposal accepted, Let's talk!

Hi Miriam,

I suggest to determine the shelters by risk and zone, initially by those
states with advances in matter,
perhaps to obtain the cartography via Civil Protection, then validate that
information with specialists and citizens.

Dear Miriam,

last year, just few days after earthquake hit in Ecuador, I present a
research proposal to Instituto Panamericano de Geografía e Historia (IPGH)
to help with the installation of a geographic open data creation process,
based on the past experiences of activations in the LatinAmerica region (in
Colombia start in 2010
<https://opendri.org/opendri-partners-with-jica-on-training-for-flood-mapping-in-colombia/>,
in 2015 we win an honorific mention from UN OCHA during the World
Humanitarian Day celebration for national activation in Salgar, Antioquia
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B19WcoSjCmvnczVlVXNzTzF1eXc> project).

I just checked a few minutes ago and now I have the pleasure to announce
that the proposal was accepted (only cover travel expenses and similar, so
it is a volunteer activity)

http://www.ipgh.org/asistencia-tecnica/proyectos-2017/pat-aprob-cart-2017.html

The proposal is leaded by Costa Rica; but other three countries are
included: Ecuador, Uruguay and México.

I think Miriam that we can joint efforts in the same direction, because
Estrategia Digital Nacional and Secretaria Nacional de Educación of México
are part of the proposal.

Shelters (organized or spontaneous) are key for disaster datasets, are part
of the UN OCHA FOD's
<https://www.humanitarianresponse.info/applications/data/country-region>
and last year we create a wiki page for Ecuador about how to map it:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ES:WikiProject_Ecuador/2016_Earthquake_Tags

Exists several sources and ways to map shelters, about for sure we can talk.

Warm regards,

Humberto Yances

Hi team,

I hope everybody is starting a year full of amazing projects.

The Gov of MX contacted us to get guidance about how to improve Disaster
prevention using maps. Their plan is:

a. First Stage- Mapping in OSM shelters

I thinks most of the HOT teams in many countries did already an amazing job
so I wouldn't like to invent the wheel, the best will be to get the best
practices already learned from different projects to get that data and
upload it in OSM.

Is there any Manual/Github/Wiki?

Probably there will be data already available and data that needs to be
collected in the field

Thanks in advance for your support,

Miriam
