> award each for the best professional/scientific app and the best 
> consumer/public-facing app.

> The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) provides a 
> list of essential strategies that apps should address. For example, apps are 
> needed that build local alliances, help people reduce fire risk around their 
> homes, and use data for flood drainage analysis. You will find UNISDR's 
> essential list, more app ideas, and other details on the Esri Global Disaster 
> Resilience App Challenge website.
