ResQ v1.1.0: The Analytics Update
ResQ just got smarter. Version 1.1.0 introduces the Flood Analytics Dashboard, transforming how we visualize disaster data in Sri Lanka. We are moving beyond just collecting SOS signals to understanding them through AI-powered insights.
New Features
Flood Analytics Dashboard: A comprehensive suite for decision-makers.
District Analysis: Breakdown of requests and resources by district.
Urgency Matrix: A real-time cross-reference of District vs. Urgency levels to prioritize resource allocation.
Geo Mapping: Scatter plots and Heatmaps to visualize disaster density.
AI-Powered Clustering: Implemented K-Means Analysis to automatically group nearby SOS signals, helping responders identify "hot zones" rather than individual points.
FloodSupport API Integration: Now powered by FloodSupport.org for enhanced real-time accuracy on flood levels, relief data, and SOS signals.
Improvements
Risk Map V2: Enhanced SOS popups now display detailed metadata including water levels (e.g., "Knee Level"), priority status, and direct contact info.
Real-time Synchronization: Improved data fetching logic for the Admin/Responder dashboards.
