Hi All,

Looking to have a space on DIYDrones where folks can talk about humanitarian applications of personal drones, like Euan Ramsay's recent blog post on using a quad to deliver Search & Rescue payloads:

My own (new) initiative in this space is the Humanitarian UAV Network (UAViators). 

Some projects/resources I've come across (and in touch with):

http://www.openrelief.org

http://www.droneadventures.org

http://www.odihpn.org/humanitarian-exchange-magazine/issue-58/the-promise-and-perils-of-disaster-drones

Anyone else working at the intersection of drone tech and humanitarian response?

Thanks!
