Dear all,

Thought this might interest some of you mappers - especially considering
the high number of tweets that made the round during the floods with the
tag #reliefph. Perhaps this could be an interesting tool to analyse them in
the future?


---- Crisis Tracker Deployment - *Sept 7th-14th*

The Standby Task Force, an online mapping community, is organising a
simulation to test a new mapping and analysis tool - called Crisis tracker
-  developed by PhD student Jakob Rogstadius.

The event that this deployment will focus on is the Syrian Civil War, and
the goal is to organize as many Twitter reports as possible into a
high-quality 4W (who, where, what, when) database. Please consult this
Google document (
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t2YISIe68GACmFfYEdPmoJ2OtT5c99BLYEUjKY8woqI/edit)
for detailed instructions. You will find instructions on how to sign up int
he google document. It's free and easy - you can become a member of the
standby task force or sign up independently but you do need a twitter
account.

Hope to see some of you online,

Best wishes,
Clara
