Hi All,

Do you or someone you know have expertise crowdsourcing GIS data?

I'm currently advising Hunter College's Center for Puerto Rican Studies
("Centro") on its GIS mapping efforts
<https://centropr.hunter.cuny.edu/events-news/rebuild-puerto-rico/data-hub> in
Puerto Rico. Centro is one of just a handful of groups using GIS mapping to
help Puerto Rico.

Since Hurricane Maria's landfall in Puerto Rico, Centro's GIS mapping has
shifted from relief to recovery and reconstruction. To accelerate its
efforts, Centro would like to create a crowdsourcing platform to gather GIS
data.

I've suggested to Centro to connect with developers who have expertise in
crowdsourcing GIS data so as to avoid reinventing the wheel. To this end,
should you or someone you know have expertise developing GIS data
crowdsourcing platforms, please let me know.

Thanks,
Yosem
