Hi everyone,

HOT has posted a blog article highlighting the talk given by Albert Gembara
of the USAID Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) at the White
House. His talk highlighted the use of the HOT OSM Tasking Manager in
coordinating the mapping work in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan and how the map
data was used by relief workers on the ground to direct effort where it is
needed most.
