Hi Everyone,

Not Google Apps or Enterprise related, but thought I'd share Google.org's Hurricane Sandy Crisis Map: http://google.org/crisismap/sandy-2012.

Feel free to share with anyone. Our thoughts go out to anyone affected by the storm.

Thanks,
Jordan

Hi Jordan,

The map is interesting, but unfortunately inaccurate. There is a serious gas and grocery shortage in NJ, and the map shows a multitude of gas stations and grocery stores open right in my neighborhood that have not been since the storm caused a loss of power last Monday. 

Where is the data coming from?

Hi Jennifer,

Also, I was informed the data came straight from NJ government. We'll let them know right now.

Thanks,
Jordan
