Automated Detection of Hazards

Countless phenomena such as floods, fires, and algae blooms routinely impact ecosystems, economies, and human safety. Your challenge is to use satellite data to create a machine learning model that detects a specific phenomenon and build an interface that not only displays the detected phenomenon, but also layers it alongside ancillary data to help researchers and decision-makers better understand its impacts and scope.

Helpy

Summary

Hello everyone,We are team Abacus Xtreme from Rangpur Bangladesh.We are ushering a revolutionary system "Helpy" for citizens in need of emergency relief materials delivered to their locations. Natural hazards or pandemic situations can prevent people from going outside to collect their daily emergency needs like grocery, medicine, or ambulance. As a matter of fact, they need to request manually to the authority for taking the required steps. But manual system faces problems like wrong locations tracking, request redundancy, false call, etc.Our system tracks the location of the applicant & draws the shortest path from the authority and alert automatically with the request details and map.

How We Addressed This Challenge

We are ushering a revolutionary system for citizens in need for emergency relief materials delivered to their location. Natural hazards or pandemic situations can prevent people from going outside of their residence to collect their daily emergency needs like grocery, medicine or ambulance. As a matter of fact, they need to request manually to the authority for taking required steps. But manual system faces problems like wrong locations tracking, request redundancy, false call, confusion about area in charge etc.


Our system tracks the location of the applicant & draws the shortest path from the authority to that location point. Also sorts the request depending on the urgency.

Area in charge is alerted automatically with the request details & maps. This saves time for management & prevents duplicate requests.

Relief can be requested in three different categories. Not more than one in charge should be alerted for one single request. Thus, human resources are utilized in a perfect way. Exact location tracking will prevent false alarms.

There is also a special category called ‘Crime Report’, where any user can submit a crime report without revealing is personal details

And all requests will leave a markup on the map which will help us in future to analyze relief data. 

As the global pandemic is affecting the whole economy, people are undergoing a lot of crisis. Our system can help them to get economical support in an easy way.

This crowd sourcing tool can help the mankind in different use cases.

Even in tracking wildfire early.

 Later on, this system will be used as an economically helping product for businesses. Clients & consumers can request for any type of product or service they need in our system. Businesses can bid on providing the requested materials to the clients. Whenever the consumer accepts a bid, a real time location tracker will be provided to that business to deliver the promised products.

How We Developed This Project

We are a team of 5 members including 3 developers 1 designer and 1 video editor.

One developer worked on frontend , one worked on backend and other developer worked on API integration and R&D.

We have use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and Python language for developing the system.

Our other two members worked on video creating and editing.

we have used Premier Pro software for making the video.

We have achieved a great experience on team work.

How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project

We have visualized crime report data and wildfires data from NASA directory for better experience of using the system.

Project Demo

We are Team Abacus xtreme and we want to help people in crisis and build a new business model.

Starting from out cities.

Helpy, An innovative user-friendly web application that utilize crowd sourcing to help people in crisis.

A user can request for any kind of help and report crime and wildfires also.

Users location is fetched automatically upon help request and his necessary products are sent to him without any error.

And crime reports are totally anonymous.

Thus, we can help people with technology by Helpy.
