hi all,

i was in new bataan on dec 12 and 13. the worst hit in comval area was in new bataan wherein theres still excavating dead bodies from the mud. basically half of the town is buried with atleast one foot deep of mud and lumber. still no electricity and the water is not safe for drinking coz of the contamination of decaying bodies. the town stinks really. so far a lot of help arrived there.  right now, the major concern is that of in banganga. baganga can be reached by land via butuan or by boat.  there are more casualties in baganga. im uploading my data i collected in new bataan. one second track is also uploaded for imagery alignment if we have in the future.

so far what is needed now in new bataan is more on reconstruction /rehabilitation

Dear everyone,

As some of you maybe aware, we are on the 2nd week since Typhoon
Bopha/Pablo struck large areas of the Philippines.  Several
humanitarian agencies are now deployed to assist in the response.
MapAction [1]  is requesting updated road and other information to
many inaccessible areas in the region.

I created a task in HOT's tasking manager [2] , please help in the
tracing.  Right now we have limited imagery coverage (only Bing and
OrbView-3) but you can trace a lot of information from already from
these imagery.  More information on what and how to trace in the
tasking details/workflow.

Advance thanks for helping.
