Size-up Details
Event Name: Beirut Port Explosion
Type ofEvent: Sudden Onset
Location: The Port in Beirut, Lebanon
Geographic Scope: Significant portion of a City
Estimated Humanitarian Impact:Likely the fatalities will surpass 100 but early numbers were claiming deaths in the ~70 range with thousands injured and potentially ~.5 million displaced.
Estimated Duration: Day(s) to Week(s)
Event Scope: Moderate Event
Local Contacts:This is an area I am still exploring, likely there is a community due to the amount of POIs and detail of the mapping. We know of some volunteer mappers who were nearby, but not local to Beirut.
Request(s): Mappers in the area asking what can be done
Need for Activation: A full activation is not required as everything is mapped, we would be in a support role to the local Lebanise mappers to determine tags, potential process & host imagery if some is captured and generally help with documentation and any other needs of the community.
