AlertMap

Gambaro!

AlertMap - VIEW and POST geo-tagged messages, pics, and video from and about the M 9.0 earthquake and tsunami, East Coast of Japan.

AlertMap is a free real-time GLOBAL messaging app that allows users to easily share information, for everyone in the world to see.

It is helpful for those in affected areas of Japan to have access to real-time data, whether it is pictures of damage or unidentified people. By helping with the flow of real-time information, we hope AlertMap will help in the effort, and provide a new and efficient means of communication when traditional channels are stressed or lacking.

Interestingly, the earthquake was preceded by a series of large foreshocks in the previous two days, beginning on March 9 with a nearby M 7.2 event, followed by three other M>6 foreshocks before the M 9.0 occurred on March 11.
