Hello all,

I thought some of you might be interested in this Hurricane Sandy crisis
map (from Google): http://google.org/crisismap/2012-sandy

Google is using aggregated and crowdsourced data to better understand
the full impact of the storm. Among the data points are traffic
condition overlays, neighborhood flooding zone estimates, meteorological
imagery, weather conditions, emergency shelters, traffic conditions and
public alerts.

Best,
Hannah
