Around the world, millions of individuals are affected by disasters, disease, and conflict. First responders working with these communities often have to cover large areas, but lack the data necessary for an efficient, effective response.
As a Red Cross MapSwipe volunteer you are part of a community of more than 30,000 volunteers engaged who have mapped over 1,000,000 square kilometers across 29 countries.
Through MapSwipe, volunteers pinpoint where critical infrastructure and populations are located, allowing mappers to focus only on areas where they know features need to be mapped.
With your mobile phone, you can play a part in helping communities around the world, one swipe at a time.
MapSwipe presenters are trained to teach MapSwipe sessions. If you are great at using technology and enjoy connecting with others, this is the role for you!
