Hi guys,

Just a quick note to mention that we're building a platform to map and
store data on the Philippines, including the disaster NGO space. We'll be
announcing our partnerships and beta in the next few months to collect data
before the upcoming monsoon season. It'll be open source and open data.
Keep you posted as we move along.
