 Scalability is only limited by resources to enlarge irrigation systems and secure modern farming tools. As the program succeeds and farmers are able to earn regular income from the marketability of their crops, they are more able to purchase some of the smaller ticket items that will enhance productivity such as seedlings and fertilizer.

HungerMaps provides the tools, and our users supply the data – anything that will make a difference in the fight against hunger. In New Orleans, users are mapping emergency food programs for Katrina survivors. In New York, users are mapping WIC centers, the results of a survey of produce retailers and others. In Anchorage, users are mapping food bank member agencies. HungerMaps provides the geocoding, and the Google API provides the geographic features. In enhanced maps like Seattle’s, users can also interact with specific data about which agencies need food, what kind of food they need, when they’re open and how to get there. In the near future, HungerMaps plans to provide more options for users, including shaded census data to help smaller users target scarce resources, and route planning for the logistical challenges of large organizations.
