This week for online learning I completed my project. My project was about how much of an impact technology has during a natural disaster. My three main points of research were: How does social media help governments, aid organizations, individuals, and communities during a natural disaster? New Technology, and What is the role of mobile devices during and after a natural disaster in a developing region? I found a lot of new information and a lot of old information too. The most interesting thing I found though was some of the new technology being developed or currently being used. For example, micro mappers create maps that update and are sent to aid agencies so they can see affected areas during a natural disaster. Technology can be perceived as good or bad, but without it there would be a lot more deaths and missing people from natural disasters.
