Resilient technologies from NGI Zero
This contains free and open source software, and may be available in cases where you cannot get access to vendor-specific stores like Google Play (work is under way to create icustom and portable app stores - stay tuned). Initiatives like NOG Alliance and Télécoms Sans Frontières (TSF) are capable of providing emergency-response technologies, but in some cases it makes sense to complement wired technologies with wireless ones. For navigating, you can find your way around with Peermaps, a p2p, offline-friendly way to distribute, view, and embed map data. Instead of fetching data from a centralized tile provider, you fetch data from other peers in the network. To those in distress: we wish you the very best, let us know if there is something we can do to help. For everyone else: note that the right time to work on achieving resilience at your end probably isn't waiting for the next large scale disruption, it is today — these things are never planned or announced, but they can be anticipated.
