Create a system that could cordinate efforts by a group of people.

[bodhish]

At some point in time. The food situation will get affected.
We should build a system in which people could request for help and people willing to help could see these requests.

Make a generaised system so that, this could be resued.

#keralarescue is a good model to start with. Insted if request to rescue, this would be a request for help

I was working on something similar (for the situation in Europe), and probably would be of interest for you guys ? My basic models include:

1. Crisis (so we can reuse it for the next one)
2. Participants (could be helpers and seekers)
3. Abilities (participants can have more than one ability which could be a VERB + some action). For eg: Fetch Groceries, Transport Medicines.

I have a small (but functional implementation here): http://134.122.80.13/api/v1/crisis/1/participants/
Kind of weird, but auto-generated documentation here: http://134.122.80.13/docs/

Some sample data (from Europe): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18lGdOfShLAt59n-HmKHzpICcCFQ2oe62_SpxHvN8y3c/edit#gid=1497344430

I was thinking of throwing this data on a Google maps as markers, and populating the bubble info ? However, I lack frontend programming expertise, so this would be slow. What do you guys think ?

Our startup made a fully working platform, we that has all the features to all these requirements. We have been working on it for 6 months. Our web app is almost ready. Android is under review in Google play store, and iOS app is ready to be submitted. We will share the details of our platform later today.

Hi,
I had a discussion with @bodhish the other day where I mentioned I am picking this up. I created an extendible backend using dropwizard and Google Juice.

I understand that people above have code in a much better situation and it would probably make sense to move with their codebase.
Mods, can you help streamline the process by providing exact requirements?
I can help with

1. Providing documentation and breaking down the system into tasks, if left
2. Making bug fixes and adding features if necessary.
3. Help with stage setup/ framework integration/ tools if required.
