My View • There are GIS data sharing sites throughout the world • Data sharing is in the national spotlight • GIS data sharing is active in government and commerce • Data sharing helps us understand, analyze, collaborate, respond, improve our world • It’s controversial!

Google Earth Gets Haiti Earthquake Imagery Tech companies are mobilizing to provide information to relief groups and financial assistance. By Thomas ClaburnInformationWeek January 14, 2010 05:01 PM Working with satellite imaging company GeoEye, Google on Wednesday evening updated its imagery of Haiti to reflect the devastation of Tuesday's earthquake. The move comes following requests from relief organizations for recent images of the country. The images, taken at about 10:27am EST, are available as a KML overlay for Google Earth. They can also be viewed using Google Maps. The difference between the images of Haiti's streets before the quake and afterwards leaves no doubt about the extent of the devastation there: Whole city blocks lie in ruins. Like a number of other technology companies, Google aims to assist with the relief effort and has pledged $1 million to help do so. It has established a Web page to solicit financial assistance for victims of the disaster. It is also encouraging Internet users to help map Haiti using Google Map Maker, in order to make sure relief workers have the most current geo-data. Other companies are also providing disaster assistance too. Fortius One, working with CrisisCommons and OpenStreetMap, has put together a news dashboard for aggregate data from volunteers and official sources.

Controversial? • Private versus Public • How much, how little • Geographic data versus Vital Records • In times of Emergency • Can data sharing be stopped? You decide…
