COVID-19 Response Support Map Inventory and Needs 4.22.2020

Note that this is posted to the Caribbean Resilience System Mapping Work Group due to the international relevance of the maps created, and possible future need for international cooperation within the Caribbean. Please let me know if you think I should create a Mapping Work Group within the Trinidad and Tobago Resilience System as well. I would like to place the Mapping Team individuals into the appropriate Work Group(s) as soon as possible to create an easily accessible institutional record of all maps shared by mapping collaborators.

Jan, there was an email yesterday that lists all the initial working groups that will need to be created.

I will resend.  We do not yet have names for all them since we have not officially rolled the RS out. Waiting for a date and time.

Hi Deeanna,
Yes. Your earlier email was the source of the content in the second half of the post.
I had already set up the Mapping Group after a conversation. with Kevin sometime last week, as it is essential for the existing maps to be understood by all collaborators immediately due to their decision-making support function, and the imperative to avoid duplication of effort in a fast moving crisis.
I do not know who will be establishing your Work Groups. I will copy Kathy to see if this is something she has been tasked with.
The question was, and remains: Should a "Mapping Work Group" or "Mapping Action Team" also be created in the Trinidad and Tobago Resilience System, as this one is in the Caribbean Resilience System? I am willing to set it up in the Trinidad and Tobago Resilience System and provide the archive of maps. I can augment the post with PDFs of the static maps as well, as format often determines if the map can be used or not.
I hope that clarifies.
Jan
