Humanitarian Mapping Program To Help Nepal Earthquake Recovery Efforts

Mary Beth Griggs reports at Popular Science about a crowdsourced mapping project aimed at helping relief workers in Nepal in the aftermath of the earthquake.

An organization called the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) is looking for volunteers from all over the world to look through satellite imagery of Nepal and label and map roads, buildings, and other vital structures that can help relief workers on the ground get aid to where it is badly needed.
