Hi there,

Today a new application developed by the Public Health Computing group from
Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute in Basel has released a new
CrowdCrafting application!

The application needs your help to geo-locate the houses of the Rusinga
Island, an island in Lake Victoria, Western Kenya. These locations will be
used to  to inform the project logistics and analysis of the SolarMal
project <http://www.malariajournal.com/content/11/S1/O45>.

The tasks are really simple and you can help a lot!

Here is the official Tweet about it:

And the paper about the project:

Cheers,

Daniel

PS: This application is really interesting because it uses the Bing aerial
data from Microsoft ;-) In principle they do not have the same
"restrictions" as Google with the number of requests!
