[HOT] activating Kilauea, HI area

[Roger Rustad]

Open Street Map team,

 

What is the best way to ask this group to activate an area for a disaster? 

 

In Digital Globe’s disaster activation protocol, and it says that the listed partners will leverage the open imagery and data made available (Open Street Map is included) and to solicit them for feedback after an emergency.

We at ITDRC are working with the Hawaii Tracker group on providing communications tools so that they can upload their pictures of the lava flow. As you might guess, however, this is a painfully slow process and we were exploring ways that we might accelerate this with more up-to-date satellite pictures of the area. 

 

Could someone point me in the right direction to make a request?

P.S. Those needing more information can email me (rrustad at itdrc.org) , and I can loop in the right people at Hawaii Tracker I’m dealing with.  There are also two main ways we openly collaborate – FB and Telegram.
