Dear CrisisMappers,
Here is an overview and update on the MicroMappers project which is a collaboration with UN OCHA:

We'll be making the platform public next month (but the apps are already operational should they be needed in the event of a disaster). In the meantime, many thanks to the Standby Volunteer Task Force (SBTF) for providing really great feedback on earlier versions of the apps.
Thanks,
Patrick

Will MicroMappers and Clickers be an open-source application/platform, or is the concept of operation to have it remotely hosted like PeopleFinder?
