Request Management
ABOUT
The Request Management System is a central online repository where all relief organizations, relief workers, government agents and camp sites for displaced personnel can coordinate the supply of aid with their demand. It allows users to allocate the available resources to fulfill the demands effectively and efficiently.SOURCES
The requests in this system come from one of three sources. The bulk of messages are sent directly from Haiti, others have been sent via Twitter.USHAHIDI
Ushahidi is a system that allows the community to send reports about what is happening on the ground. They can be sent by email, or logged via the web, but most SMS messages inside Sahana have been received from Ushahidi's 4636 phone number. This is a free cell phone number provided to the Haitian people to report their situation to responders.
