About Ushahidi
Ushahidi is a crowdsourcing platform that collects reports from citizens by web, SMS, and social media and maps them during crises. It is typically installed on Linux servers or containers and administered through configuration files, a CLI, or a built-in web interface. Regular community releases, public issue trackers, and extensive documentation help new administrators get from a first install to daily use quickly.
