HOT collaborates with a wide range of organizations to leverage open source tools and join resources to generate crucial data so that humanitarian work and disaster response efforts are able to reach vulnerable areas. Through training, shared expertise and large-scale volunteering, we help organizations run rapid field data collection campaigns, and improve the way they use technology and open map data.
Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and Interngovernmental Organizations (IGOs) are essential allies in HOT’s mission to make the world’s most vulnerable places visible and accessible. Through our collaborative work, we ensure that local insights are integrated with global strategies, leading to more informed decision-making and accelerated impact.
Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team’s (HOT), collaborates with national and local governments, by aligning the mapping initiatives to address the specific needs of each region, and providing support to government by making open data accessible for policy decisions. Our critical geospatial data supports informed decision-making, efficient resource allocation, and effective response to emergencies.
Communities are central to HOT’s mission. These partners, including community organizations, women’s groups and other grassroots groups, ensure that our efforts are tailored to the unique needs and contexts of the region and area we serve. By collaborating with local partners, we transform local insights into actionable data, creating maps that are accurate and create meaningful, sustainable change.
Together with our corporate and tech partners, we bridge the gap between local knowledge and global impact, ensuring that technology and the map itself represents the most vulnerable and reaches inaccessible areas. In collaboration with a wide variety of tech and corporate partners, we develop and employ advanced solutions that make it easier to create and share high-quality maps that are crucial for disaster response, development planning, and community resilience.
