Organizational Context:
Yayasan Peta Bencana (Disaster Map Foundation) is an South-east Asian non-profit organization,
developing open source platforms for real-time crowd-sourced disaster mapping. We run the
award-winning project, PetaBencana.id; a free web-based map that harnesses the use of social
media during emergency events to gather confirmed on-the-ground updates from residents, and
displays these reports alongside government agency validations on a publicly accessible map. Since
its debut in 2013 (as PetaJakarta.org), the PetaBencana.id platform has been used by millions of
resident users to make time-critical decisions about safety and navigation during emergency events;
it has also been adopted by the Indonesian National Emergency Management Agency (BNPB) to
monitor disaster events, improve response times, and share time-critical emergency information with
residents. The platform has enabled greater information sharing and data coordination among
residents and government agencies, and was awarded the 2019 United Nations Public Service Award
for ensuring integrated approaches in public sector institutions.
