[@OKau] Fwd: [liberationtech] Here's a pro bono satellite imagery project - what should we use it for?

Tue Nov 10 10:57:54 UTC 2015

I forwarded this to a clever bod working with TERN, AusCover & the Data Resources Working Group of the Ecosystem Science Council. It looks like something he'd know what to do with.

Dear All,

I will be doing some independent consulting work (starting next week) for Crowd4Sat<http://www.crowd4sat.org/> (website still under development). This project combines the power of citizen science with observations from satellites.

My role is to identify compelling applications that will produce data/analysis that is very much needed by humanitarian, development, human rights, and/or public health, etc organizations. Once compelling applications are identified, Crowd4Sat will obtain the necessary imagery, customize a citizen science platform and invite digital volunteers to analyze the imagery. The results will then be shared with the humanitarian, development, human rights, etc, organizations that requested the data/analysis.

I'd be grateful if you could email me directly (off list) if you know of a compelling use case, or know of an organization that could take direct advantage of this pro bono project to expand their impact.

Many thanks,
Patrick
