Crowd-sourced open dataComplex datasets created with comparative easeVolunteers can deploy very rapidlyRobust procedures already exist in community (eg SBTF)Allows self-organisation which could be good or bad
Changes context for open dataData could be opened in emergency?You can't make the community respond, you can ask

Communities can now self organiseAnd this is mostly positiveBut it will have very challenging aspects
