Good afternoon,
 
I need some assistance from any and all if possible. We are attempting to  
make a District 13 and a Statewide overlay for Ui-View to be used in emergency  
situations (disaster, etc). What we are asking for is as follows: local  
hospital, fire dept, police/sheriff depts, health departments, EOCs, EM  offices 
and other major facilities phone numbers and coordinates  (GPS). We're not 
asking you to rush out and get them all at once, just a when  you are out and 
about. Once these are all received they will be made into  several key overlays and 
one large overlay to be used in the Ui-View APRS  program. We are currently 
experimenting with this as a tool during  activations and public service 
events. The more information we can gather and  place in the overlay will make us 
more functional as all the information will be  readily available. Once the 
overlay is completed, anyone desiring a copy of the  overlay for their use just 
needs  to request it. It will be continually  updated. As  soon as the District 
13 website is up and running, a hyperlink  will be sent to all and the updated 
versions will be on the APRS page.
 
In advance, I thank you all for  your help.
