What about quality?

Damage Assessment

I am currently in Port Au Prince with the Fairfax County Urban
Search & Rescue Team (USA-1) out of Fairfax, VA, USA. I wish
there was a way that I can express to you properly how important
your OSM files were to us.

Kate ChapmanExecutive Director of HOT
We are working with the Australia-Indonesia Facility for Disaster Reduction to collect exposure data using OpenStreetMap. We are working with 5 universities
to collect urban data and community facilitators in rural areas to collect the information there. The goal is to collect 3 attributes about each building (number of floors, wall type and roof type). That will then be
fed into risk modeling software.
Currently it is a three month pilot to determine the feasibility of using OSM for this. With the rural
facilitators they are already doing poverty mapping and we are just aiming to give them better tools in
order to improve what they are doing as well as get them to collect some more data for the risk models.
It turns out the attributes we are interested in also can feed into the poverty analysis so they are really
excited about it.
