Noticed that a bunch of #redistricting-minded people and orgs are also doing work related to the #COVID19 response. Here's a thread listing what I'm aware of from #redistricting software shops/groups with >10 employees—plus other people's work that caught my attention. 1/
Folks from @Azavea (maker of @DistrictBuilder) are working on CovidCareMap, mapping hospital bed capacity nationally. Credit to Azaveans @lossyrob, @jefffrankl, @SimonKassel, @mouthofmorrison … maybe others, too? 2/ https://twitter.com/mouthofmorrison/status/1242481745624289283
Folks from @gerrymandr, aka MGGG, (maker of Districtr) have been working on something cool that's yet to be officially launched AFIAK, so I won't link to it here, but stay tuned! 3/
Caliper Corporation, maker of @Maptitude for #Redistricting, has been posting near-daily custom maps related to the disease's spread in the lower 48. 4/ https://twitter.com/Maptitude/status/1245032864741314561
