We are meeting in NYC to gather, publish, map, and visualize the Ebola outbreak in Africa, and create an inventory of available open data sources that will help to inform health care workers, aid workers, and governments responding to the Ebola outbreak, so everyone can find this information and use it to discover new insights about the spread of this deadly disease.

Please attend ready to roll up your sleeves and make a difference. Join Data.gov, the United Nations, and doctors and governments on the front line to inventory open data sources and build out the inventory, add to existing maps, and create a portal.

For virtual participation, join the Google Hangout: https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/hoaevent/AP36tYec85RDPCaq6sVINBGcrxCjfZa339KcciVl-7UTvwfY17Fbag?authuser=0&hl=en from 9:00-10:30 a.m. Eastern and stay tuned for virtual tasks to come.
