This web map is part of the development research that aims to provide a mapping platform for official and collaborative data, within the scope of disaster risk reduction (DRR), as this type of catastrophic events is increasing its frequency of ocurrence in the state of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) in the last years. The municipality of Maricá is the pilot area of ​​interest (AOI). The reader can also visit the dynamic map of this same area of ​​interest at uMap.

The mapping and development of the collaborative platform are coordinated by Dr. Raquel Dezidério Souto (IVIDES.org), in cooperation with a group of mappers of the YouthMappers UFRJ. To keep contact, please, send an email to ivides@ivides.org or answer this form.

The web map is being developed in WordPress and Leaflet Map and the initial list of layers is showed below. The web map has some background layers (WTMS) aplicable to this case (DRR mapping): OpenStreetMap, HOT-OSM (Humanitarian OpenStreetMap), * OpenTopoMap* and Esri World Imagery.
