The ICOMOS
Haiti Earthquake Desktop Reconnaissance

Through the generosity of the Pictometry International
Corporation of Rochester, NY to URISA GIS Corps and the International
Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), the WMF Haiti Mission had access to
this remarkable data, which was used for the survey maps available below.
The work to make the maps was accomplished in Adobe Photoshop by Randolph
Langenbach.
