OCHA's humanitarian Dashboard

Thanks to iRevolution for this:
The goal of the Dashboard is to ensure evidence-based humanitarian decision making for more needs-based, effective, and timely action. The business world is well-accustomed to dashboards for senior executives in order to provide them with a real-time overview of core business data, alert them of potential problems, and keep operations on-track for desired results.

Stephen Few, a leader in dashboard design defines a dashboard as “a single-screen display of the most important information people need to do a job, presented in a way that allows them to monitor what’s going on in an instant.” Such a single-screen or single-page overview, updated in real time, does not currently exist in the humanitarian world.”
