Can I take this opportunity to plug MapAid who provide mapping and geomatics experts to humanitarian and disaster zones worldwide, including Western Africa.

The utility of GI in this kind of area was shown best in the recent tsunami disaster where the response from GI providers and professionals was massively useful in the immediate aftermath as wll as long-term recovery efforts.
