Overview

What does Ushahidi Do?

  • Ushahidi is a tool for collecting, managing, and visualizing data.

  • Data can be collected from anyone, anytime, anywhere by SMS, email, web, Twitter, and RSS.

  • Posts can be managed and triaged with filters and workflows.

  • Data can be viewed in many ways: on a map, in a list, or as a visualization.

Who is Ushahidi For?

Anyone can use Ushahidi, but traditionally it has been a tool used by Crisis Responders, Human Rights Reporters, and Citizens & Governments (such as election monitoring or corruption reporters). We also serve environmental mappers, asset monitoring, citizen journalism, international development, and many others.
