[HOT] Faster activations with disaster.ninja

 Disaster Ninja! http://disaster.ninja/live/  looks interesting. I really like the population vs OSM data-density basemap on there. It shows we need more mapping in India and China! :-)
In fact i wanted to ask if we could put an image of that on the wiki as a "featured image". For that it needs to be an open licensed image (e.g. CCBYSA) Would that be OK?(That's a question for Darafei, but in general if anyone has suggestions for nice images/photos, let us have them over at: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Featured_image_proposals )


I also like the idea of having a broad view of things like "prior HOT activations and all the imagery for affected region", and I imagine that would be very useful for activation planning (?)
however I wasn't sure how that works on there. On the 2nd link you gave an example, and I see it showing little HOT task icons. Looks neat, but I couldn't see how I would see these for a different disaster? How do I generate that id parameter? or just in a different part of the world where I might be looking at setting up a new TM project?

 Hi HOT!

Thank you very much for documenting your activation workflow. We read
through it and thought we can be helpful with some automation on Phase
1, in size-up and imagery estimations. We made a tool:

http://disaster.ninja/live/ 
 - Shows latest event and affected area from GDACS.org.
 - Shows prior HOT activations and all the imagery for affected region, if there were.

 - Estimates gaps in the OpenStreetMap data correlating objects counts to population, globally, using a combination of highest resolution datasets from European Commission and Facebook.
 - Imports, exports and edits geojson shapes, reportedly ready for upload as area of interest into Tasking Manager.
Have a look at cyclone Fani through it to see more of the above: http://disaster.ninja/live/#id=GDACS_TC_1000561_27

What do you think?
