Beta Launching Shafaf.Org
Beta launch of Shafaf.org: Crisis mapping for the people of Iran.
Beta launch of Shafaf.org: Crisis mapping for Iran.
Shafaf.org is still under development but the crisis map tool is working, and we’d really appreciate it, in light of events in Iran, if the URL for it was spread around some. Using a beta version of Ushahidi, we’ve started the crisis mapping service for Iran in Farsi, English and French at http://shafaf.org/ushahidi/.
Please pass this around to people inside and outside Iran who have up-to-date information to add regarding acts of repression, violence and censorship.
Shafaf will be undergoing revisions in the new year and will be fully launched with the 1.0 release of Ushahidi. In the meantime, we’d like to see it start becoming a resource for grassroots information gathering.
