Personally I hope the many wonderful buildings and temples have been spared; also with climbers; travels; locals & anything there. There's probes in Nepal. I'm sure there's some data we have to measure infrastructure status after the earthquake. There's a ripe anchor in Kathmandu. > anchor np-ktm-as45170.anchors.atlas.ripe.net A quick look on my iPhone shows cause and effect. More work is needed. One of the hacklab projects covered mapping outages. This could be a test? Anyway - 02:45 - too late to think more. Someone take it from here.

Tremors were felt (measured 5 on RS) at my hometown, Lucknow [1] (around 500km away from epicentre). Phone lines were disrupted for an hour. DVB-T signals are still disrupted. Internet connectivity is okay — this is from 1 vantage point.

Advancing your hackathon projects
by Livingood, Jason 14 Apr '15

14 Apr '15

All of the projects I saw in Amsterdam looked great, and I know a few of you may be continuing to finish up work in advance of the upcoming RIPE meeting in May. If any of you are interested in small grants to develop additional enhancements to make the visualizations even more valuable to the community – we at Comcast have a grants fund to which you can apply. See http://techfund.comcast.com/. The grants usually take 30 – 60 days to review once submitted, so it probably won’t get you something before the RIPE meeting. But it may nevertheless be of interest to some of you. Of course, the same basic rule from the hackathon applies — the work should be open sourced and beneficial to the general RIPE Atlas / RIPE / Internet community. While I will not be at the May RIPE meeting, at least one person from my team will be: Chae Chung (copied). Feel free to reach out to him if you have any interest in discussing Internet performance measurement and visualizations. :-) Regards Jason

for those in amsterdam... b -- community, cooperation, commons, squirrels // http://becha.home.xs4all.nl nature, anarchy, utopia, anthropocene, collapse // https://lists.puscii.nl/wws/arc/uncivilization ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2015 06:55:42 -0400 From: Bert Spaan <bert.spaan(a)gmail.com> To: Maptime-AMS-announce(a)meetup.com Subject: [Maptime-AMS] Maptime Amsterdam #6: Show & Tell + Three.js Maptime Amsterdam #6: Show & Tell + Three.js This Wednesday night, we'll use the first part of the evening to give participants a change to tell about their own map/project/work, or about something map-related they want to share. We did this during the first Maptime session in November, and it's time to do it again! Bring your favorite map, tell us about this new data visualization you came across, or show us how you've used maps and cartography in your latest project/idea. Afterwards, we'll work on making a 3D map in the browser! Together with my former colleague Laurens Schuurkamp (he now does data visualization at Philips Design), I'll prepare a tutorial on how to display geospatial data in 3D using Three.js. Maptime starts at 6:30 PM. Please bring your own food/snacks/beer/wine! Maptime is hands-on, so don't forget to bring your laptop! All skill levels are welcome. -- This message was sent by Bert Spaan (bert.spaan(a)gmail.com) from Maptime Amsterdam.

Videos are on Youtube!
by Michela Galante 08 Apr '15

Hi all, We have uploaded the videos with your presentations on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWe8TLDNo4Y (Part 1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFTeXHcUPFU (Part 2) Unfortunately something went wrong with the last presentation. Sorry Vinayak! Your presentation was not recorded :( We only realised that when we watched the videos: the hack did not work… And... for those that did not do it yet: can you send us your slides? Thanks, Michela
