Situational Awareness Tool

Situational Awareness Dashboard

The Situational Awareness Tool built for the City's Office of Emergency Management merges many disparate pieces of information into a single dashboard, enhancing OEM’s decision-making abilities. The City can now quickly and effectively assess the current and potential impacts of an emergency or special event on the community and the day-to-day operations of the city. Integrating and visualizing various data sources combined all of these data sources into a single view, providing OEM with the ability to turn various data points into actionable information.
