When disaster strikes, being able to count on accurate information can mean a world of difference for first response teams. Knowing where people live, the best ways to get in and out, as well as locations of water and other basic necessities are all of great importance to those working to save lives.
Unfortunately, vulnerable people especially those living in rural communities are more likely to live in areas not properly mapped.
