I am not sure if there are any specific needs yet.

Mapping and Planning Support Group (MAPS) http://maps-group.org had
had deployments to Red Cross QLD for the last 4-5 weeks and in the
last few days they had been providing maps of suburbs that would need
evacuating. They have also been creating maps of suburb demographics.
I expect the control room of Red Cross and other agencies is very very
busy right now.

more soon
