 to a very interesting session this afternoon. We will talk about a community approach to measure earthquake data. And this is related to the Izmir earthquake this year, I believe, awkward. I welcome awkward as our speaker. He is connected from Istanbul. And it is his first talk at the first Congress for him. So he has never seen or heard of it before, maybe just from remote. So yeah, I'm interested to see what he was talking about. And I would like to hand over to you, awkward, maybe introduce yourself. OK, thank you for introducing me. I'm very excited to be here online at least. I'm Orkut Muratil Mas from Istanbul, Turkey. I'm a survey engineer. And I'm working as a DevOps engineer too. Actually, I have been working as part of some induce, which have been focused on free software, open data, crowdsourcing, and also internet privacy too. We have different induce in Turkey and with different focuses. So one of them is Yersiz Annaş, which I am a member of. And this project is done by the efforts of Yersiz Annaş. So I'm going to introduce a little bit. I'm going to introduce you the Yersiz Annaş, our NGO. It is located in Istanbul, Turkey. And it was founded in July 2017 by the people from different free software communities, such as OpenStreetMap, PostJS, QJS, GeoService, and other geospatial free software communities too. After the establishment of Yersiz Annaş, we have worked with humanitarian OpenStreetMap team. And we have made the Binah project. It was the project for the refugees who have been living in Istanbul. And we organized workshops for the refugees and helped them mapping the places they have been getting services, such as health services, legal services, and other services from the NGOs, government institutions, and corporations too. After the workshops, refugees created the buildings and the roads and the other maps over the OpenStreetMap. And then they did their navigation by the help of the free software tools in order to receive those services. After the Binah project, we have done some work on 30 data network improvements project over the OpenStreetMap. Again, we have worked with humanitarian OpenStreetMap team too. On October 30, 2002, there was an earthquake happened in agency. And the magnitude was reported as 6.9. And the earthquake had also caused the first tsunami recorded in our country. It was happened in a small town near the agency. It is called Stragik. And then the result of the earthquake was 116 casualties and 1,000 after forced injuries. So this was a photograph of a demolished building after the earthquake. So there's a national institution in Turkey. It is a union of chambers of Turkish engineers and architects. From different branches of engineering and architecture and urban planning, people got together since the 50s. And they work as the local professional organization for the engineers and architectures and urban panels. So we have contacted the East Mercedes Coordination Council. It is called CCC here again. And we've worked with them and they have established a crowdsourced call center after the earthquake in order to organize the fieldwork and officework. And they helped us doing our officework, fieldwork, workshops, and the other data collection and data analyzing works with us. When the earthquake happened, we were in Istanbul, actually. I mean, me and some of my friends. And some of our members were in East Mercedes Coordination. And after the earthquake happened, we have learned that the magnitude from the Candidate Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute, the magnitude was huge. So that we decided to give some support for the people who were affected by the earthquake. So first, we have checked the disaster gathering zones map of Izmir. And there was no map of disaster gathering zones. There were some spreadsheets on the National Disaster Government Agency, the website. So we have collected the data. And then we have created the disaster gathering zones map in an hour after the earthquake. I mean, an hour after the earthquake, our disaster gathering zones map was online. And we started spreading it over the social media. And then we went to Izmir. And because of all the works we have done with the Humanitarian Opensite Network team, we have some know-how about using mobile applications and mobile forms in order to gather data from the disaster areas. So we have contacted the Izmir City Council of the National Chambers of Engineers. And then we go to the field and we went to disaster areas. And then we have collected the demolished buildings data first. We have collected the building type. We have collected the building architecture. We have collected the, is there a roof level? Is there how much levels the building has? And the other data as well. And after that, when we collected the data, we have published another online map over the U-Map. So we have three layers of the map here. One of them is fully demolished buildings right after the earthquake. And the second layer is about partially demolished buildings. And the third layer is showing us controlled demolition of the buildings. After the earthquake, there were some damaged buildings and demolished buildings as well. And some damaged buildings were demolished by the workers and engineers and the other people. And then we organized a meeting with the Izmir City Coordination Council of National Chamber of Engineers. And then we decided to create a public form and distribute the forms to the people who were affected by the earthquake. And then we started collecting the citizen data. We asked people, where is your building? Where have you been living? And do you have the photographs of the damage? And the city governors' urban issues management or did not do damage assessments work in your building? And what was the result of the damage assessments? Do you have an urgent need? And do you have others' notes and photographs and the other data? So more than 1,200 people filled that form. And then we have organized some committees from the volunteers, the volunteer architects and the civil engineers. And then we created some maps of the damage assessments works. They controlled each building. And then they made the quality assurance of the official damage assessments, which was done by the city governors. And then we made different data to compare the official damage assessments report. And then after collecting the data from the people, we have published an Izmir earthquake damage heat map. We have chosen the heat map format in order to not to show the private data, not to show the personal data of the buildings. But we decided to use a heat map to show the earthquake damage all around Izmir. And all the data, sorry, all the maps we have published are still online on our Turkish website. It is called izmirdepremi.com. And you can visit there. And after the RC3, you can click the links on my presentation in order to see the published maps too. And we have organized the map at home, international map at home with humanitarian open-site map too. And after the map at home, we have chosen an area, the urban area and the other areas of Izmir. And then we got together with the volunteers and then the Turkish open-site map community and the global open-site map community too. And we have created the maps for the Izmir. And we have used different data sources. One of them is Istanbul Technical University's remote sensing lab. And the other one is Maxar. It was provided by humanitarian open-site map team too. And in Izmir, in Istanbul, in different cities of Turkey and all around the world, people contributed for the map at home. And then there were 155,303 buildings that were mapped on the map at home. And it was 173,844 edits were done. It was huge for Turkey. And it is the greatest contribution of humanitarian open-site map teams' Turkey data after the earthquake. And we have created the earthquake data GitHub repository or the GitHub app. And we have been sharing the open data. I mean, we have deleted the private data and we opened the source of data we collected from the citizens and data we collected from the fields. And we also published a report here in Turkish. But an English report will be published too in a week or two. So this is the stuff we have done in order to in a response of Izmir earthquake as the citizen engineers, architects, and urban ministers. Thank you for listening to me. Thank you, Arkut. You said the map is still online. Can you show the map right now? Is it possible to have a quick view or walk through? OK. So this one is disaster gathering zones map of Izmir. It is online on Zoom app. And this is the earthquake, sorry, the most map of the earthquake. And you can take the layers here. I mean, these are the fully demolished maps. And these are the partially demolished map buildings. And then these are the controlled demolished buildings in the earthquake area, actually. Sorry. And then this is the form we have created over the USAID. People can put their name, their contact details, the location of their building, and exact address, the neighborhood, and the street, and the door number. And they can add some photographs about the damage. And then there's, yes, no question here. Did Izmir government do a damage assessment process in your building? And what is the result of the damage assessment test? And your urgent needs, please. As I said before, more than 1,200 people fit that form. And this is the last one, the earthquake hit map. And sorry. And yes, this is the map of the city. Yeah. So one question is, will this be updated, or is it an option to be updated? Like now it's kind of repaired status or stuff, or is it just the momentary? Actually, it is the latest version. And there are no buildings demolished since the 15th of December, I guess so. But if there will be a new building demolished, we are going to put that on the map. Actually, not only us, the other volunteers living in Izmir can put the data on the map, too. I've got one more question, because it's interesting for the people to see where the data on the map and so on. So the link overview would be interesting. So maybe you mentioned the GitHub link, where it's all properly documented. Maybe we can open that up again. And then so we have it at least in the talk. So we find it probably, yeah. Good. Yeah, links are very welcome. Here we can see it, yeah. Good. OK. Yeah, so interesting. And any more future plans on how to extend that, or is it kind of regular, so you never know? Yes, we have future plans. Actually, we were lucky in Izmir. I mean, the earthquake was happening in a very little area. But we are expecting a bigger earthquake in Istanbul. And it would happen in a very large area. So we are trying to organize against the earthquake damage. And we are still trying to organize workshops and give people the right tools in order to be prepared for the earthquake. So we still want to analyze the, sorry, we still want to create a map for the earthquake analyzes of the buildings of Istanbul. Because there are five million buildings in Istanbul in total. But in the worst scenario, there could be more than 15,000 buildings would be demolished after the possible Istanbul earthquake. OK. Good. OK, perfect. I think we have the link already copied. So we have it for later purposes in the chat, et cetera. So yeah, thank you very much. I hope it was OK for you. First target, first Congress. And you enjoy the rest of the Congress. So feel free to join all the other sessions and join the board. OK. Yeah, thank you very much for now. I think we will hand over back to the studio. OK, thank you.
