-Summary Text: On April 27, 2024, the hydroelectric dam of July 14 collapsed after

-  Alegre and affecting over a million people. In response, the LAC Hub launched an
-  open mapping effort to support recovery, updating maps and negotiating access to
-  post-disaster imagery. This effort, in collaboration with the Inter-American Development
-  Bank (IDB), focused on creating high-quality geographic data and developing tools
-  for recovery.
+Summary Text: After the 2024 floods in Porto Alegre, Brazil, the IDB and HOT partnered
