"08.04.10Over the past few months, as oil from the Gulf of Mexico has poured into the coast, more than 1,300 text and Twitter messages, emails, phone calls and iPhone apps have alerted the Louisiana Bucket Brigade (LABB) to facilitate one of the largest publicly available, citizen-driven, oil-response efforts: a map.In May, the LABB launched its Oil Spill Crisis Map project, which collects data from residents along the Gulf Coast, whether they're reporting oil on shores, suspicious odors, soiled wildlife, threatened livelihoods or health problems. The reports are added to a map, giving the LABB an idea where complaints are coming from relative to where monitors are set up by the Environmental Protection Agency.\"What we're finding is that people have health complaints and they have exposure complaints, but the EPA monitors aren't there,\" says LABB director Anne Rolfes."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
