Google launched a “person finder” tool on Saturday to help users find loved ones affected by the earthquake that devastated Nepal.
With communications to the region badly affected by the 7.8 magnitude quake, buildings flattened and more than 750 people dead, it can collate information from emergency responders and allows individuals to post details about relatives missing or found.
The result is a searchable, online database.
Within hours of the disaster hitting Kathmandu and its surrounding area just before noon, 200 names had been uploaded.
The tool has become a regular feature of recent disasters, when reliable information is needed rapidly.
