Planet, With People

Your challenge is to build on the Human Planet Initiative of the Group on Earth Observations to apply new methods for mapping attributes of human populations. How can Human Planet data from NASA and other sources be used to improve or update maps or other information important to a problem that concerns you? Design or create a tool or service to accomplish this.

Pro - Human

Summary

Our challenge is a new way of mapping the population, settlements, types of infrastructure. This data will have to be made available in a practical and easy to understand way, targeting different audiences, who want to consult the data for their region.

How We Addressed This Challenge

Mateomatics - HG Weather


They were used to obtain meteorological data and histories, making it possible to mitigate damage and alert the population to the possible damage caused by floods. ArcGis


Solution made available to teams to create interactive maps using data from open source banks.

How We Developed This Project

We developed the project based on the data made available by Space Apps 2020 and made an interactive map, where the competent population and body can visualize the areas at risk of possible floods.

How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project

We use the Meteomatics Weather APIs for meteorological information about Curitiba, and ArcGIS to return interactive maps to us to cross with the information taken from the APIs.

Project Demo

Our solution consists of crossing data obtained through ArcGIS maps, weather forecasting data from the Meteomatics Weather API and HG Wheather.


These data give us an estimate of risk areas, which will generate alerts for the population that lives there.

Data & Resources

Meteomatics Weather, HG Wheather ,ArcGIS, IBGE e Google Colab
