Description

Humanitarian organizations can't help people if they can't find them. MapSwipe is a mobile app that lets you search satellite imagery to help put the world's most vulnerable people on the map.

In MapSwipe, developed in collaboration with the Missing Maps project, users choose a crisis prone part of the world they want to help, such as spotting villages at risk from a cholera outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo. They must then swipe through satellite images of the region, tapping the screen when they see features they’re looking for including settlements, roads and rivers.
This information is fed back to mappers who need this information to build detailed and useful maps. At present, they have to spend days scrolling through thousands of images of uninhabited forest or scrubland looking for communities that need mapping. Now, members of the public can directly contribute to MSF’s medical activities by locating people in need more quickly so mappers, and ultimately medical professionals on the ground, can get straight to work.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

5 ★[Suggestion] Please add translation from other languages to English
4 ★App is good, no issues found till now. But I would like to know why there is no option to link OSM account?
4 ★The app gets stuck loading the next session after about 3 to 5 sessions. I have to force quit on android and reopen to continue.
5 ★This is a great app for humanitarian action
5 ★Good app and great cause but I occasionally encounter bugs. A common bug is, during building validations, the app may unexpectedly close or the map tiles don't appear.
5 ★Cool app for crowd sourcing geo data. Different missions to support a range of organizations working on humanitarian, environmental, and other causes.
5 ★Seemed easier than prior events.
1 ★I dont see what is the logic.
2 ★Signing up does not work on my Fairphone 3. The app starts, I enter my username, email and password, then the app takes forever loading and it ends with a message that something went wrong with signing up. Can I create my account via a browser (could not find that option on your website).
