This recap #cclivechat is one to bookmark! Laura Madison explained what crisis mapping is, how it can be used in cold cases, and gave examples using the ongoing Colorado wildfires.
Laura described herself as a “mom, research crimino-digitologist, poli junkie, vol tech comm outcast, crisisnapper, crowdsauce pilot JK!” I could not resist calling her out for napping during a crisis instead of mapping it! She described crisis mapping as maps that display near real-time data collected fr ‘crowds’ via mobile or Internet tech & apps making crisis mappers this era’s first responders. Data comes from folks at the scene who tweet or post details according to specific hashtags, an great example is here. Also, check the How To to see those hashtags used. This map re the Colorado Wildfires is created by @katestarbird using the Tweak The Tweat #TtT syntax Method.
We spoke about crowdsourcing: “Crowdsourcing began as a legitimate tool to leverage the wisdom of the crowds to solve complex business and scientific challenges. Howe defined crowdsourcing as the act of outsourcing a task to a large, undefined group of people through an open call.” Just think about your own neighbourhood. In cases of emergencies, all neighbours join in a search, a cleanup, carpool, etc. This is similar only on a bigger scale. Ordinary people tweet information about the location and the nature of the disaster, who is offering what kind of free service, who has shelter available, etc and all that information is collected by crisis mappers and displayed for easy visualization of the area. It pinpoints the disaster but also where the relief can be found.
Now to make this work for collaboration with law enforcement in cases of missing persons, Laura said the following:
“I view missing persons/unidentified as a s-l-o-w moving #disaster that affects millions of families+communities annually globally scale.
Missing Person officially – A missing person is defined as someone who has been formally reported to a policing agency.
Missing Person in community – A missing person is defined as someone who has been reported as missing to their immediate community.
The time between when a person goes missing and is reported to police varies.
We have seen in the past few years an increase in the use of social media to publicize missing persons cases.
We sometimes see Facebook groups and tweets, you tube video after its been officially reported to police and publicized via MSM.
Now increasingly on major+slow moving disaster we see reports originally on SM via citizens before its reported to officials.
Often we see patchwork state by state or provincial by provincial digital responses to these issues. Crisismapping can assist.
There are some maps but most have not very good User Interface and have missing/not enough information.
Websites that are not connected to other states/provs, not social media friendly.
Not much use of mapping NATIONALLY to visually illustrate the extent of this slow moving disaster.
Some national projects are bulky with complicated user interfaces that contains incomplete info, too many fields/none at all.
Australia Ntl Missing Policy: “PLEASE” principles of: prevention, *LOCATION*, education, awareness, support and evaluation.
police are encouraged to promote the concept of a national website or linked websites.
police are encouraged to promote but first build a USEFUL national websites that will allow for social media redistribution.
police are encouraged to crowdsource what citizens want+need in order to assist police.
citizens are encouraged to assist in crowdsourcing what citizens want+need in order to assist police.
Police GLOBALLY are encouraged to create AND release geo datasets to related missing ppl, unsolved & unident found human remains.
I am advocating that citizens+government work together to assist the slow moving #disaster of missing/unsolved/unident using open technology”
Needles to say this chat went into overtime so I wish to thank Laura again for being so generous with her time. If you have any questions for Laura, please place them in the comment box below this post and I will alert Laura.
Last, a good article on crisis mapping by Christa M. Miller can be found here.
The verbatim thread is below. The next #cclivechat is on Friday the 13th with a Bad Luck Detective who is aiming for TomSuz!
