In Germany there are in comparison to other countries not many real crises. We could use Ushahidi especially for natural disasters, like high water, hurricanes or a high level of snow and ice.
Now in the peak hours after Osama bin Laden is killed, the system could eventually also be useful for possible terrorist attacks.
Similarly, the system would be useful to search for fleeing criminals. Many times germans discussed, if it should be possible to indicate public, where released sex criminals live. Such information could also be passed through the system.
I think in the future it also may be possible to find a lot of demonstrations in Germany. There could be different reasons for demonstartions like the collapse of the euro, rising gas prices or the deteriorating education system. Ushahidi would be a useful basis to share the places of demonstration, images, videos and other information.
