GENEVA – Aid workers, with the help of Google Earth, are uploading key information onto the Web to illustrate the needs of hundreds of thousands of people left homeless by Haiti’s earthquake — an innovation that could significantly boost the ability to respond to future disasters.

The idea is new and relatively simple: U.N. and non-governmental aid officials can log onto Google Earth from makeshift settlements housing more than 600,000 people in Haiti and provide real-time details about the population and its global positioning.

Although there have been some teething problems, officials believe the tool could greatly speed relief efforts.

“The humanitarian agencies have some catching up to do when it comes to things like Skype and hand-held e-mail,” said Alex Wynter, a Red Cross spokesman in Haiti. “But in the base camps, we’re connected and disaster relief is going online.”

Users with Google Earth on their computer can go to the Web site, http://www.cccmhaiti.info, where a link offers a map of many of the 414 tent sites, churches, government buildings, schools and refugee camps that have sprung up since the Jan. 12 tremor that killed over 200,000 people.
