We propose implementing and scaling Resk.us – a platform leveraging open data and geospatial technology to map and optimize the distribution of emergency resources following a natural disaster. Resk.us is designed to connect individuals in need with support through a community-driven, data-centric application. The platform utilizes analysis of demographic, meteorological, and spatial data (GIS/OpenStreetMap) to create an interactive map that categorizes affected areas by urgency — urgent aid, medium aid, and low aid. Core functionality includes tracking available resources, listing shelter details (occupancy, specific needs like medication, food), and calculating the safest transit routes for users.
