[OSM-talk] [Fwd: Re: [CrisisMappers] Need Positions of Cemeteries and Paths to Cemeteries]

[Jean-Guilhem Cailton]

There are cemeteries in the haiti-tlm-50 map WMS layer (see wiki).

"Cimetière" in French, apparently sometimes abbreviated as "Cim."

Dear Folks,

This is an ICRC update on the issue of disposing of the bodies....it is 
an official document---may be of interest as people are trying to make 
decisions about what are the priority issues....also  may affect how the 
bodies are identified.  Please pass on to the key people in your network 
so that it may be disseminated widely on the ground...

best, Jer

    Request in from field guys on the ground

    "Eric,

     

    Need to know where cemeteries are and paths to get there. Can you
    map these? Bodies have to go asap and in cultural context. Arch
    Bishop is dead, voudoo is alive and well and the grief reactions
    will create unrest (more that is) as bodies decompose. Have
    asked/begged DoD to bring in mortuary and get to religious leaders
    to help counsel grief reaction. Families are sleeping next to dead
    bodies as there is no way to get them out of the city to bury.

     

    L"


    Is anybody tracking this right now or can we start this process on
    Ushahidi. We may have to do this as SMS comes up, or even
    better...if we could get Walking Papers in now.


    -Luke
