[edit] Introduction

[edit] What is a Project?

A CrisisCamp project is a temporary piece of work with a defined goal, which has been proposed by an NGO and accepted for CrisisCamp by the CrisisCamp coordinators. A project can be in one of these states:

  • Proposed - an NGO has requested a CrisisCamp project by filling out the CrisisCamp request form
  • New - the project goal should have been approved by the CrisisCamp coordinators, but is not yet being worked on by a CrisisCamp team. The project is listed on this page, and has its own page or pages in this wiki.
  • Active - one or more CrisisCamp teams have started work on this project. The project is moved to the list at the bottom of this page, and the project manager for this project has filled out the Project Description Template for CrisisCommons.org somewhere in the project's wikipages.
  • Completed - the goal of the project has been reached.

How these tools are used and fit together is described on the CrisisCamp Tools page.

[edit] What can I do?

  • If you are an NGO responding to provide relief and wish to have technical assistance, please fill out the CrisisCamp request form. Be sure to include as many specifics of your proposed project as possible, including contact information for you and/or your organization. You can see examples of requested projects on the Requests page and by looking at the projects further down this page.

[edit] What does this page do?

The first part of this page contains links to inactive and completed projects, and a list of outlines for new projects. The second part contains a brief summary of each active project in tabular form. Updates to the first part are encouraged, but in the interest of efficiency, please do not add new projects to the second part. To help discuss the format of this page, please see Talk:Projects.

Project lists in addition to this page are:

[edit] New Projects

[edit] New Project: Haiti Amps Network

Objective: to optimize the recovery from loss of limb(s) post natural disaster.

Stakeholders: Amputees & NGOs

Description: A computerized registry: registration via mobile phone, amputee profiles self-reported in SMS format, creation of a data base in RapidSMS designed to facilitate better planning and execution of collaborative service provision by NGOs. The capacity to incorporate more detailed profile information of a clinical nature is also envisioned (info as entered by an aid worker for example), referral features for amputees as well. If exploited as intended by its stakeholders, the Haiti Amps Network should increase the likelihood for optimal recoveries amongst new amputees in the earthquake survivor community.

  • Project Lead: Kimberly Roluf, Haiti.Amps.Network@gmail.com, skype: kimberly.mtl
  • Project Home: Crisis Camp Montreal
  • Needs: programming (Django & Python); user interface design; sys admin; translation (Creole/French/English); short code; radio contacts in Haiti (for public service announcements); and more...

[edit] New Project: CrisisCommons Roledex

This new project is focused on building a collaboration tool to provide non-profit organizations with available volunteer technical assistance. This system should also be able to create Tech Action Teams which would be able to solve technical challenges.

[edit] Resource: Telecommunications Consulting

RNK/W2W Communications will provide telecommunications consulting for the CrisisCamp project teams. We have the ability to provide International Calling via Pins and ATA's as well as conference bridge access numbers in other countries. If you think of something that involves help with a phone call anywhere in the world please contact us.

  • Coordinator : Jim Palmisano, @jpalmisano or jpalmisano at rnkcom dot com
  • Technical Resource provided: telecommunications consultants; telecommuting resources; International Calling; International Numbers; Domestic US calling

[edit] New Project: Community Tool Box

The Community Tool Box, http://ctb.ku.edu, offers more than 7,000 pages of freely available how-to information for community health and development work. We would like to see how we might be able to partner to make these tools available in Hatian Creole for the development work ahead. Idea - embed a translate toolbar for H.C.? We'd love to see what we could do in conjunction with Crisis Commons. Please contact coordinator: Christina Holt, cholt@ku.edu

There is probably an opportunity to partner with the Languages and Translation project. You can contact the team leader for more information: Jennifer Wade @volcanojw and the same [at] gmail.com

  • Technical Resource Needs: web developer or web content editor, machine or human translation

[edit] New Project: Mobile Application for Ground Truthing and Surveying

The World Bank requests that the following be developed: A cross-platform mobile application that will have the following features. 

   * locally cached map
   * base survey questions
   * photo capture that is automatically linked to correct survey entry
   * automatic geo-referencing or survey information and photos
   * a web interface to customize the survey
   * the ability to click location/polygon on map in order to create survey point at that location
   * the ability to load a tabular file (i.e. excel) with list of locations to be surveyed and display those locations on the map.
  • Technical Resource Needs: unsure
  • Project Leads: none
  • Volunteers: none

[edit] New Project: IncidentVisualization

A disaster response tool which aggregates incidents from multiple feeds and exports and/or displays them in multiple formats.

  • Technical Resource Needs: Java Google App Engine Developer; Semantic Search Designer; Visualization Programmer
  • Project Leads: Tom Wilson twilson650 at gmail.com
  • Volunteers: none

[edit] New Project: Telecommunications Technical Project

How to get most all the Communications (electronic, radio, internet, cell -- not press) on the same page(s) or at least in near proximity. The freedom to use or abuse the wiki is great. Not wanting to seek more CONTROL, but wanting to get these helping resources where we can best meet the needs .. maybe the head webmaster might want to align all the technical comms on wiki and projects to allow finding all the places to look for help. This is of course compounded by all the groups on NING and GoogleGroups. I'd be happy to produce / attempt to produce an encompassing list but not to try to physically reorder the Wiki. That could have some serious ego management issues. WOULD be nice to have a pointer to a comprehensive list where technical telecomm is found.

[edit] New Project: Early Warning System in Refugee Camps

Based on my experience with media in the developing world and disaster relief, I am creating a critical cell phone-based early warning system that will help predict and prevent violence and disease outbreaks that frequently become the "next wave" of disaster. The network will first serve immediate early-warning needs within and between Internally Displaced People (IDP) camps. It will later develop into a communication network that will continue beyond the emergency phase of the earthquake to facilitate the critical citizen-driven rebuilding process. One international aid agency is interested in implementing the system as soon as possible. The network can be developed in stages so that a basic framework can go live by the end of the month.

[edit] New Project: NeedsCategorization

NeedsCategorization is a Twitter app that searches Twitter for specific medical needs and categorizes them neatly into a web-site. The categories will help map the needs to available resources better. For example people looking for Penicillin can find it under antibiotics.

  • Project Leads: Christie English
  • Volunteers: Srinivasan Singanallur, Jyothi Gurram, Aravind Srinivasan, Himanshu Ranavat, Annabel Landsberg, Tina Wong
  • Customer: Haitian people and volunteers who have needs and people who can meet those needs.
  • Location of Development
    • Silicon Valley, CA
  • Web Application: []

[edit] New Project: Santa Barbara County OpenStreetMap

Started: 02/20/10 at @CrisisCampSB

Led by UCSB Spatial we are taking the lessons learned in Haiti to get ahead of the curve and trace buildings in Santa Barbara County. Additionally, we are working to build an OSM server configuration to refresh OSM in Santa Barbara as quickly as possible.

Project leader: Alan Glennon @glennon

Priority mapping needs:

  • Fire roads
  • Hospitals and medical centers
  • Fire department stations
  • Police stations
  • Gas Stations
  • Power lines
  • Water sources
  • Airports & airport buildings
  • Animal hospitals
  • Schools
  • Gyms (incl schools & YMCA, etc)
  • Parking lots and structures
  • Grocery stores
  • Water treatment

Other priority needs:

  • SMS short code for SB County

[edit] New Project: PostDisasterChildProtection

Child registration is a major problem as we clearly see. Done well and quickly it can be a lasting resource in under-developed countries. UNICEF has experience of this post Aceh. I don't know their system but I bet this one is faster and more effective. iPhones are distributed to all disaster workers pre-loaded with an App to input demographic data, on any children encountered. Name, age, current location, any known relatives names and last known locations, photo, and fingerprint scan using FAFA (F.B.I's Field Agent Fingerprint App). Data is sent to central location. Password access site containing all collected and sorted data limited to appropriate agencies.

  • Technical Resource Needs: iPhone developer (develop mobile app, other platforms as well?); web/DB developer (developer central data repository and web interface); maybe someone knowledgeable of FAFA (F.B.I's Field Agent Fingerprint App) or another biometric tool; would be nice to get some donated iPhones or other mobile devices; web hosting.
  • Project Leads: none
  • Volunteers: none
  • Customer: Any agency interested in protecting children from predatory individuals/groups.

[edit] Active Projects

Note: Please do not add new projects to this section. So we don't have to update and maintain two redundant lists, only update the one above.

Project Description Status
Creating Adhoc APIs for OCHA data via YQL for future projects Using YQL to make UNOCHA's Emergency Relief database, 3w (Who is working, Where people are working, What sector/cluster organizations are working in), easier to access so it can be used alongside other datasets by people on the ground. Active. Project lead: Megan Finn (Silicon Valley)
CrisisCommons Project Icons Produce graphical representations for CrisisCommons Projects. Active. Project lead: Sean Yamana sean.yamana@crisiscommons.org

CrisisWiki CrisisWiki is a editable directory of resources related to disaster response and emergency preparedness. Initially focusing on Haiti-related information, the wiki is being designed so that it can easily expand to address future disasters, as well as collect important local, state, national and international emergency preparedness resources before a disaster strikes. Active. Project Lead: Andy Carvin (@acarvin). Technical lead: Jeff Mace (@jeffmace)
Crisis Wiki Regional Twitter List As part of the Crisis Wiki, we've created a Twitter account (@crisiswiki) that has a series of Twitter lists with people/groups that can help to spread the word about fundraisers, crisis camps, and other other crisis response efforts. Project Lead: Jared Goralnick, AwayFind, @technotheory
Disaster Accountability Hotline form of WAV files and/or Google Voice. A ticketing system would allow volunteers to efficiently triage |calls w/info about gaps in critical relief services. annapembertoncurran at gmail dot com, @AnnaCurran, Peter Hanink, Peter at |disasteraccountability dot org, @phanink

Active. Project lead: Marc Forni: msforni@hotmail.com
Haitian Skiilled Workforce Retention Tool to keep skilled Haitians in Haiti (or attract them to return for the reconstruction): A vast majority of the skilled workforce resided in PaP. The community fears that they will now leave. There are many institutions that have now collapsed the skilled workforce will now decide to leave. There is an effort underway, skill sets that are available to identify people who are willing to go back for the rebuilding effort. There would be fields that are specific to the Haitian community. They would like to see an application to promote the ability to engage skilled workforce. Inactive? Project Lead: TBD
HaitianStories HaitianStories is a website to collect Haitian Stories in their own words. Share the story of the Haitian people and the current crisis through text, voice, or video and publish to the Haitian Stories website. Purpose is to provide long term support for reconstruction purposes by telling the story even after the media hype has died down and to archive the human stories and the culture. Uploaded content will need translation to be really valuable to the public. Cell phone users would be able to call in to leave a message. Active. Project Lead: @natea or natea (at) jazkarta (dot) com
Haitian Voices aka Haiti Survivor Stories The Haitian community has requested that CrisisCommons create a capacity for survivors to tell their story of the 2010 Haiti Earthquake. They would like to post information for survivor stories, saying thank you to the world. A construct where there would be a "wall" feature where people can go and post survivor stories. They would want to filter so that the open space is not abused. There has been an outpouring of all the communities in the world. They have been hearing so many stories. The community believes its important to capture these stories now as it is" a defining moment in our history." This would be called "Haitian voices." Active. Project Lead: Chris Selmer (tech lead) @cselmer, chris (at) intridea.com
Humanitarian Relief for Disabilities The purpose of this project is to make a humanitarian relief for disabilities site, created on Ning, accessible wcag 2.0. In my haste of organizing an international response for the disability and other at risk groups in Haiti, I created a ning site, which quickly grew with some of the top disability policy makers and advocates in the US. It is still growing steadily and I am at a crossroads here. One suggestion was to possibly create a social network community using the plone CMS and migrate existing members over. Another option is to try to fix the existing ning site, which is located here. Active. Project lead: kara.harkins@gmail.com, @kara_h
Karl and Carel's Project - Haiti Connections Rebuild This is a system guided in its development by the people in Haiti to meet their needs reconstruction over the next years.
