Activation


Status


Typhoon Ruby is a tropical cyclone that is currently impacting the Philippines,  however it weakened to a category 3 typhoon before it made Landfall at 9:15pm Saturday 6th December 2014 (Local Time) at the town of Dolores, eastern Samar. 
Less disastrous than Typhoon Haiyan last year.  So far only 23 reported deaths due to hypothermia.
Ruby weakened before making landfall, reducing the humanitarian impact. The low death toll is also widely regarded as a success in disaster response, particularly with better coordinated mass evacuations. However families have returned to find themselves homeless, or effected by the infrastructural damage. Of course we are providing free maps, and we can work on improving our mapping to aid in recovery.



Coordination


Mark Cupitt and Maning Sambale, assisted by Andrew Buck and Pierre Béland, are coordinating this activation. We coordinate with OCHA, the Red Cross / Red Crescent and the Digital Humanitarian Network partners.

Support Team



The support team communicates via the  irc://irc.oftc.net #hot IRC channel. You can join the Support Team and the Coordinators on the IRC for discussions or help for mapping.  You can also talk with other mappers or the support team by installing mumble and connecting to our server talk.hotosm.org
Additional information can be found at Humanitarian OSM Team (HOT) Mailling-List. You have to subscribe to this list to have the autorization to send emails to the group.




Mapping Effort Required



With the dispersion of the population in numerous islands and with the extent of the damages, up-to-date maps are an essential aspect of the management of this crisis. Tremendous efforts have been made by the OpenStreetMap community. The developers are adapting tools to provide up-to-date maps rapidly to humanitarian field workers. Hundred of contributors are also tracing over satellite imagery to update continuously the maps.

The following features were initially identified as being essential to map to assist with Response Effort.


 roads 

 schools 

 hospitals 

 churches

 buildings

 residential and commercial areas

 waterfronts

 malls

 sports complexes

 Helicopter Landing Areas

Humanitarian Mapping


Mapping Standards


Mapping will need to be done to a consistent standard. The following tagging scheme is based on the OSM-PH Mapping Standards and should be used on all activation mapping.  
In addition to the Philippine mapping convention, tagging for structures that are used as evacuation centers must be added evacuation_center=yes.





 Features 
 Description 
 Tags used 
 Bing 
 HIU


Highways

 Roads indicate people and settlements. Trace as much road features as possible. Make sure are properly tagged, use bridge=yes

Refer to PH road tags






Settlements

 Trace approximate boundary of settlement to identify areas where people are. Boundary do not need to be too detailed.

landuse=residential

 

 


Schools

 Schools in rural Philippine are usually long building arranged in parallel to each other.  There is usually an open ground in the center used for school activities.  During emergencies, schools are use as evacuation centers. Trace the whole boundary of the school as amenity=school and then trace individual buildings within the school complex.  Open grounds can be use as landing spots during emergencies. Add the tag evacuation_center=yes, if it was verified from other sources.

amenity=school, name=*, evacuation_center=yes (optional tag)






Place of worship / Churches

Trace the church grounds and individual buildings within. They are also used as evacuation centers during emergencies.

amenity=place_of_worship, name=*, building=yes for individual buildings within, evacuation_center=yes (optional tag)






Open spaces like basketball courts

Trace the open grounds like basketball courts. They are also used as evacuation centers during emergencies and landing spots of helicopters.

leisure=pitch, name=*, sport=basketball, evacuation_center=yes (optional tag)









Validating Tips


Please refer to Validating Data for information on Validating Tiles.



How YOU can Contribute and Help



Tools and Services Available
The Tasking Manager and the JOSM editor are essential parts of this Project. As new imagery are available, new jobs are added to the Tasking Manager. It has allowed HOT to coordinate efforts of mappers around the world. Some days there were more then 200 simultaneous mappers registered on the Task Manager and editing mainly with the JOSM editor. Online editors are also used for less intensive mapping. LearnOSM.org offers learning material for beginners and more advanced mappers.

New Mappers

 Most of our volunteer needs are for remote OSM contributors, visit LearnOSM.org section for new remote mappers to get started.


Mappers with Experience
