PhilAWARE Project

HOT-Philippines started the PhilAWARE Project last July 2019 which is a local installation of DisasterAWARE, a disaster risk reduction and integrated early warning and decision support system that also incorporates many data layers form OpenStreetMap.

+ Part of the activities of the project included remote mapping in the province of Pampanga and Quezon City. Remote mapping and validation activities for both areas have been completed with the help of volunteers, organizations, partners, and other stakeholders. +
