#earthquakeinturkeye video of digital and institutional readiness for disaster response offers a small example of how @Kizilay is using data for effective coordination and delivery of services. @ifrc emergency appeal aims supporting the massive needs arises from the earthquake.

Organic maps and @openstreetmap helped Dr Bilgehan Çevik, a turkish doctor, get to the damaged areas in first hours after the #TurkeySyriaEarthquake openstreetmap.org/user/pedri…
When other map services aren’t available, #OpenStreetMap and apps like @OrganicMapsApp are where people can turn. Hear from Dr. Çevik on his experience in the earthquake response in Turkey. #TurkeySyriaEarthquake @hotosm @YerCizenler

This was a fun old man conversation with Ed about how @openstreetmap has developed over the years, where it's taken me, and where it's going. Also I do other stuff with maps :D Key idea: patience and persistence!

According to @KonturInc's #DisasterNinja Mubende District which is the epicenter of the #EbolaOutbreakUG has a population of 978,799 people with 51% OSM Gaps, 89% unmapped buildings, and 30% unmapped roads - @osmuganda can we do a mapping activation for the EbolaResponse?
