Vesuvius continues a lineage from Sahana Krakatoa. This effort is mainly concerned with improving family reunification and administrative capabilities, developing a robust code base, and exploring mobile technologies. The project is driven by international responses such as the Haitian earthquake of 2010, and US-hospital-focused triage needs.

SSF Branch Manager of this distribution is Ramindu Deshapriya. As of June, 2013, he is also the chair of the new Vesuvius subcommittee within the Sahana Projects PMC. Starting in 2013, code contributions to the Vesuvius trunk are coming from Virtusa, Inc., in addition to the U.S. National Library of Medicine and to Google-funded SSF student awards. Many of the contributing developers are based in Sri Lanka, the birthplace of Sahana. Google Summer of Code 2013 projects derived from the main trunk include the creation of a Portable App version and a Demo site. The latter will make it possible to see and manipulate Vesuvius features requiring privileges beyond that of simple registered users (e.g., administrative or hospital staff). It is anticipated that many of the student branches will be merged into the trunk at summer’s end.
