Introduction

MapaKalamidad.ph is a project initiated by Yayasan Peta Bencana as a free, transparent platform for emergency response and disaster management.

The platform adopts a “people as sensors” paradigm, where confirmed reports are collected directly from the users at street level in a manner that removes expensive and time-consuming data processing. This framework creates accurate, real-time data which is immediately made available for users and first responders. MapaKalamidad.ph gathers, sorts, and visualizes data using specially developed Situational Intelligence Open Source Software (Siti OSS) - an enterprise-level platform for emergency response and disaster management - to transforms the noise of social and digital media into critical information for residents, communities, and government agencies
