We are happy to announce that Depiction has joined us as a sponsor for the Social Media Responder 2009 contest.

Depiction software merges images, data, maps, and real-time events into a dynamic view of your local communities not only in crisis, but more importantly before the actual crisis in simulations so that your Agencies can effectively prepare for the crisis. The combination of the data points and simulation capabilities of the software are incredible, and makes it a powerful tool in both pre-crisis presentations as well as collecting and disseminating live event information.

The winner of #SMR2009 will receive a full copy of the Depiction software and their two plugins (a $200 value) thanks to Tim Goddard and courtesy of Depiction.

Nominations for #SMR2009 are still open, and while your nominating why don’t you through a tweet of thanks to @Depiction for their sponsorship!
