<B>Subject</B>: [SDI-Africa] Anyone can share Brazzaville GIS data?<BR>
<B>Date</B>: Tue, 06 Mar 2012 13:06:40 +0000<BR>
<BR>
Dear all,<BR>
<BR>
You probably heard about yesterday's blasts in Brazzaville, killing at least 180 people and injuring over 1300. <BR>
<BR>
I work with MapAction, the international disaster mapping organisation (<A HREF="http://www.mapaction.org">www.mapaction.org</A>), and we will probably send a team to Brazzaville later today to assist in the relief efforts, in particular to create maps for Search and Rescue and recovery activities.<BR>
<BR>
However, as with all things GIS, we depend on data.<BR>
<BR>
If you have detailed (city level or regional) map data on Brazzaville and/or Kinshasa and are able to share this for the relief efforts please send the data, along with a short description to <B><A HREF="mailto:brazzaville@mapaction.org">brazzaville@mapaction.org</A></B><BR>
<BR>
In particular we are looking for data on:<BR>
- city basemaps (road maps)<BR>
- Government/ official buildings<BR>
- Schools, hospitals, etc<BR>
- Utilities <BR>
- Local and inner-urban administrative divisions<BR>
- Inner urban population<BR>
<BR>
Data can be in GIS data formats, scanned maps, spreadsheets, anything really on the listed topics.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
We already have data from OSM, Goggle and Bing Maps, so no further need for these.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you<BR>
<BR>
Karl Hennermann<BR>
on behalf of MapAction<BR>
