クライシスマッパー兼Ushahidi関係者よりsinsai.infoをgoogleのクライシスページに
リンクしたいがサーバスペックは大丈夫か？
との問い合わせがきています。
これは関さんに設置をお願いしたKMLプラグインと関連するのだと思いますが
sinsai.infoのデータをKMZファイルとして取得する負荷を懸念されているのだろうと思います。

お手数ですが、どなたか、直接意見交換して頂けませんか？

Hi S. Higashi,

What is the load capacity of your Ushahidi site?  I would like to link to it
from the Google crisis page for Japan, but it could bring you very heavy
traffic and I am afraid it might bring your site down.  Can you advise us on
what your site can handle?


Hi Christiaan,

Yes, my intention was to add the Ushahidi KML layer to our landing page map,
and include a link to the site as well.  I think it will be useful to get
the KML generation working well in any case, so please work with them on
that if you can.  Even if we cannot link directly to the site, we can still
periodically grab a snapshot of the KML and get it visible on our landing
page.


Thanks everyone!
