A massive 7.0 magnitude earthquake has struck Haiti. Whilst the extent of the damage and cost of the quake is still unclear there are fears thousands of people may have died.

Ushahidi Haiti Earthquake Map


Ushahidi, in a joint effort with UN OCHA/Colombia and the International Network of Crisis Mappers (CM*Net) have produced this Google Maps mashup to track the latest news and incidents related to the Haiti earthquake.

The map reports incidents such as collapsed roads and buildings to try and provide as much up-to-date news for Haitian citizens as possible. It is possible to submit information to the map by completing a short form.
