Locate Buildings, Climate Change Challenge (1)

Project overview
Makira Island in the Solomon Islands faces significant challenges due to natural disasters. The island frequently experiences severe cyclones, flooding, and landslides, especially during the cyclone season. Climate change intensifies these issues, with rising sea levels, increased storm intensity, and unpredictable weather patterns posing threats to agriculture, health, and coastal communities. Mapping settlements on MapSwipe is crucial for improving access to open geospatial data for disaster management, emergency response, resource allocation, and planning resilient infrastructure, ultimately strengthening the island’s preparedness and resilience against these escalating threats. This project is part of the OM Guru Climate Change Challenge 2024 hosted by the AP Hub, HOTOSM, and TomTom.
