[OAM-talk] Haiti Imagery

[Mikel Maron]

Agree with this very much. Though disk is a major issue as Chris correctly points out, other parts of the architecture in discussion, particularly the cataloging, would be immediately very useful for tracking all the distribution and processing status of all the released imagery.

This page is really excellent, but I do wonder if some imagery is slipping through?

Subject: Re: [OAM-talk] Haiti Imagery

So I'm also on the CrisisMappers group. It's a google group for those searching for it. 

In the last 2 weeks there have been hundreds of emails on the group, and much of it dealing with openstreetmap and imagery, and using this to help people on the ground.

One thing that did strike me is the need for a project such as openaerialmap. There was probably a TB of imagery put up for download, so people could use it for relief work. 

So I would recommend members of this list to go look through the messages that have transpired in the last couple week on that group. 

But it does seem that a nice open system would be very beneficial for people.

So I'm curious, what are your thoughts? How can the OAM project be used for a crisis?
