Hi Heather,
We need someone to take the Ushahidi-Haiti platform and do a copy & paste, so we can customize for Chile. ie, simply take the Haiti data/reports out, rebrand to Chile and point the map to Chile, can anyone do this on your end? The Ushahidi Tech team in the US is not online yet, am in touch with Jon Gossier, and pinging Erik Hersman. Don't want to duplicate efforts but we need something up within the hour.
Thoughts?

Am in touch with Ushahidi Tech about deploying an Ushahidi-Chile platform based on the Haiti install. Are there any partners on CrisisMappers who have a mandate or interest to collaborate on an Ushahidi-Chile deployment?
Also, on SMS short code, does anyone have connections in Chile or is anyone starting to look into this?
Thanks,
Patrick

8.8 Earthquake assessment
Initial reports ~50 confirmed dead;
Population; Shaking Felt
3,000,000; Severe
9,772,000; Strong - Very Strong
Concepcion with a population of 650k or more has initial reports of
severe to catastrophic damage. Very limited communication with this
region so far. Santiago is experiencing moderate to heavy damage
depending on the structure type. Some reports of collapsed structures.
Power is out in most of the capital. Starting to come back in areas
already though. Debris and damaged roads are making travel difficult.
Airport is shut down while structural assessments are being conducted.
There is a major bridge connecting the north & south near the city of
Talco. Reports have the bridge as being destroyed.
