Saturday, I attended CrisisCamp Haiti – DC, a more-focused variant of BarCamp-style event (closer to a hackathon in some ways), dedicated to getting people together on several projects to help victims of the Haiti earthquake — in this case, by building tools to help emergency responders and aid workers. (See all the projects and camp resources and updates at CrisisCommons.org.) CrisisCamp project team leaders, including host Andy Carvin.

This was actually the second week this occurred; the previous Saturday’s event (which I wasn’t able to attend) generated some great results, including a English-Creole app for smartphones and some OpenStreetMap initiatives that got some pretty good press coverage (including by AP and CNN). One common observation/criticism of BarCamp-style events is that they often generate short bursts of great enthusiasm, but then fade away without producing tangible results.

Social Media Among Haiti's First Responders. Data Dissemination to the Government of Haiti | Off the Map - Of. OpenStreetMap in the World Bank Haiti Situation Room For the past 3 weeks, since January 12, we’ve been actively involved in many efforts to provide support and analysis of the Haiti earthquake recovery. From immediate OpenStreetMap efforts to get imagery open licensed and traced, to working through CrisisCommons to get new volunteers mapping, creating dashboard common operating pictures of population affected by the event, emerging IDP camp locations, distribution centers, and gathering normalized health facilities around the country. Historically, these tools have been useful for the public and media to cover an event – but the question often arose if they were beneficial to responders and citizens on the ground.

It’s been clear that tools such as OpenStreetMap have had a clear and positive impact on the response and recovery efforts. Organizations from the World Bank, to MapAction, to the Fairfax Search and Rescue teams have all been using OSM as a primary means of maps and routing. CrisisCampDCFeb27 on USTREAM: CrisisCamp DC.
