UNDP EYES UKRAINE’S DAMAGED BUILDINGS WITH CROWDSOURCING, MOBILE APP

Curated on Posted on February 19, 2015October 10, 2018 by Stefaan Verhulst


Aida Akl at VOA TECHtonics: “The crisis that plunged east Ukraine into war in
November 2013 has damaged or destroyed critical infrastructure and limited
access to areas caught up in fighting between Ukraine’s government forces and
pro-Russian rebels. In order to assess damage, the United Nations Development
Program (UNDP) turned to crowdsourcing to help restore social infrastructure as
part of a United Nations, European Union and World Bank Recovery and
Peacebuilding Assessment for Eastern Ukraine….
Using an interactive map, ReDonbass, and a mobile app (Android and iOS), people
of Donetsk and Lugansk regions can report damaged homes, hospitals, schools,
kindergartens or libraries.

The easy-to-use interactive tool allows any person with a mobile phone and
access to the Internet to download the most accurate data about the building in
its location, photographs of the damage, and the status of the recovery phase.
After that, the Ukrainian government and international donors will use the data
to better plan reconstruction.
Information from the map will contribute to an ongoing Recovery and
Peacebuilding Assessment for Eastern Ukraine. UNDP is part of the assessment
that brings the United Nations, the European Union and the World Bank Group
together to analyze the impact of the conflict and offer recommendations for
short-term recovery and peacebuilding over the next two years….The map has also
proven to be very useful for the experts from the Ukrainian Government and a
recently launched UNDP-Government of Japan project aiming to restore critical
infrastructure for social care and services. They [are] using it to identify
schools, orphanages, elderly homes, and social services centers that need to be
restored and rebuilt first….(More)”.
