During a disaster like a hurricane, wildfire, tsunami, earthquake or train crash, getting data to government officials, family and people in the area who can lend a hand can be challenging. Aftermath provides a platform for real-time communication between all levels from the individual citizen, to the government relief organizations (FEMA). Although emergency responders and FEMA may not be monitoring the data, Aftermath data is available for everyone.
In 2017 we witnessed the impact of several major hurricanes, an earthquake, huge wildfire, mudslides and blizzards. Coordinating emergency services and relief efforts proved challenging as communication was decentralized and chaotic. The "Cajun Navy" had no direction and relied on initiative to help the general public. With Aftermath, everyone can see in real-time where the help is needed, make contact and deploy resources. As the need shifts so do the data collected by Aftermath, keeping responders updated in real-time, all the time.
