Overview#

The Natural Hazards domain provides real-time earthquake monitoring, tsunami warning detection, and automated disaster response for Jamaica and the Caribbean region. It integrates with USGS real-time feeds to automatically detect, analyze, and respond to seismic events with AI-powered prepositioning recommendations and mass notification capabilities.

Key Features#

  • Real-time USGS earthquake feed integration with automatic polling
  • Tsunami warning detection and elevated alert handling
  • Significance scoring for event prioritization
  • Community felt report tracking for ground-truth validation
  • Automated alert generation for earthquakes at or above magnitude 4.0
  • Dynamic geofence creation based on earthquake magnitude and location
  • AI-powered resource prepositioning recommendations for aftershock preparedness
  • Mass notification campaigns for significant seismic events
  • Configurable geographic coverage and magnitude thresholds per organization
  • Magnitude-based action tiers from storage-only through critical alert

Use Cases#

  • Monitoring seismic activity in real time and automatically alerting affected populations
  • Generating resource prepositioning recommendations for disaster response teams
  • Creating dynamic geofences around earthquake-affected areas for targeted notifications
  • Tracking earthquake history and community felt reports for situational awareness

Integration#

The Natural Hazards domain integrates with Geofence for dynamic hazard zone creation, Notification for mass alerting campaigns, Social Media for synthetic post generation, and Alert for automatic alert creation based on earthquake magnitude thresholds.
