Summary of Users:1.NGO’s E.g Doctors Without Borders, Online Volunteers etc.
DwoB’s use OSM to map critical healthcare facilities in locations where government or ‘official’ map data is not accurate or up to date. DwoB’s use information mapped on the OSM platform to make important, critical decisions about healthcare needs of local populations.
DwoB’s would potentially use the training centre if they had a long term formal response to a crisis and they needed to have better, overall knowledge of the OSM systems.
The sections they might most be interested in are ‘Community Care’ http://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=14§ion=2
‘And Tasking’ http://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=7
The courses are designed specifically around the activities and skills necessary to successfully operate the HOT Disaster Mapping Program.
2. **Hot OSM Team Members E.g Coders, Designers, Product Managers etc.***
As much as most of the Internal Team members worked on the tool, it has given them much understanding of how to administer, maintain, and support HOT servers and community-critical applications including Tasking Manager, OSM Export Tool, OpenAerialMap, OSM Analytics, and HOT website. This includes administering our cloud-providers like AWS, Heroku, Hetzner, and Microsoft Azure. This also includes helping implement development roadmaps.
This section might most be interested in are ‘OSM Management’ http://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=9, Hot Reporting: Effective Documentation for Activationshttp://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=16, Using OSM: Putting Data to Workhttp://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=12 and Hot Validation: Fixing Data and Mappershttp://courses.hotosm.org/course/view.php?id=11
