Authorities routinely post the hurricane evacuation centers for a year as they do change a little bit year to year.
but the core typically remains the same, schools etc. These just need a good lifecycle tag. Like "good until' date, after which it can be easily found and removed. I proposed some lifecycle tags for damage tagging and helicopter landing zones (different than helipads) that would apply here I will try and find them, but they were based on a known good until date, after which they should be updated and a new known good until date added, or should be removed or not relied upon. cheers blake On Thu, Sep 7, 2017 at 11:12 PM, Nick Hocking <[email protected]> wrote: > Eric wrote "Why would you delete data that is still valid and useful?" > > > My concern is that if these are permanent features, then people will say > "ooh - they'll be the same as last time" and of course they probably won't > be the same as last time and we may route people to a wrong place, with > possible tragic results. > > I agree that this information should be left in place, but marked , > unusable, until specifically activated by authorities, which I agree should > be well ahead of time, so long as people know that they will not be usable > until a state of emergency is declared. > > Activation should be on a center by centre basis so that authorities will be > more likely to ensure the list of centers is accurate and up-to-date. > > I also think that this information should NOT be edited, in any way by > anyone other than the authorities.
