So proud of @Cloud2Street team for getting on the cover of today's Nature!!! We are proud to have created the largest open source database of global flood maps that show a 24% increase in the proportion of population exposed to floods around the world. nature.com/nature/volumes…

Haven't written in a while, but this was a fun and important reflection on how Nobel Prize winners and close collaborators @WFP have important guiding principles for anyone hoping to "change the world" with #TechForGood

Global Program Manager @emmalinag reflects on our work with @WFP: "No matter the innovation, we must learn from those doing the hardest of jobs first."

Go @JeffCFHo !!!

As @JeffCFHo said during his #GeoforGood19 keynote address, at Cloud to Street we ask "what if we had flood maps before flooding? What if those in high risk floodplains had moved? If those at medium risk had insurance? If responders knew exactly where to go?"

It's a real honor for me to get to teach others on how to utilize the power of mapping as a tool to build their own local resilience to major floods !!
