Abstract
Embodiments disclosed herein provide techniques for dynamic response management. Weather data for a geographic region is received, and a state of the geographic region is determined based on the weather data. A first predefined rule of a plurality of predefined rules is identified based on the determined state of the geographic region. A first role of a first user is determined. A first instruction is then generated for the first user based on the first predefined rule and the first role, where the first instruction comprises one or more actions. The first instruction is then transmitted to the first user.
Background
BACKGROUND
Emergent situations, such as changes in weather, accidents, emergencies, and the like, often call for targeted and timely responses. However, there are no existing systems in place to automatically collect the necessary data, identify appropriate responses, and enact them. Additionally, for many events, a wide variety of data sources are often utilized, providing conflicting or confusing information. For weather events or other emergent situations, compliance with government, manufacturer, and/or operational regulations can be a significant challenge. To effectively respond to new situations, personnel are in need of consistent and up-to-date rules as well as actionable procedures. Existing systems require substantial manual oversight and instruction (e.g., manager to employee) to ensure procedures are followed. It is critical to provide correct information and instruction to ensure the overall health and safety of the community. SUMMARY
According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, a method is provided. The method includes receiving weather data for a geographic region, and determining, by operation of one or more computer processors, a state of the geographic region based on the weather data. The method further includes identifying a first predefined rule of a plurality of predefined rules based on the determined state of the geographic region. Additionally, the method includes determining a first role of a first user. The method also inc
