to inform your colleagues and students to contribute in the crisis<br>
mapping action launched by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. This<br>
will also help teach the students also the real essence of education and<br>
humanity and "sharing knowledge and expertise" to help each other in<br>
times of need.<br>
<br>
We thank our colleagues (esp. Maria Brovelli, Marco Minghini and<br>
