History

  • Hunchworks was an idea first mooted at UN Global Pulse's PulseCamp 1.0 in December 2010, and was based itself on an earlier idea by Ka-Ping Ye.
  • We built an early version of Hunchworks in Ruby in May 2011.
  • In June 2011, Adaptive Path started working on the Hunchworks design, and we started coding up those designs using Python and Django.

Stakeholders

The target users of Hunchworks are:

  • Pulselab analysts - primary users of this system
  • Crisismappers - could use hunchworks during deployments

System Environment

We're building HunchShare as part of the UN Global Pulse vulnerability monitoring toolkit. It needs to be compatible with the Global Pulse Platform (Oliver) and its user management tools, and with the other tools contained in the toolkit.
