Project Description

Swiggy Solutions aims to safeguard residents of Moreton Bay by developing an app which alerts residents of road closures due to inundation. Utilising MBRC datasets and location services on personal devices we can deliver alerts to drivers within a 2km proximity of a inundated road. This eliminates hazards for drivers coming across flooded roads and allows for drivers to find alternative roots for transport.

Challenge Entries

Moreton Bay being resilient in times of uncertainty (QLD)

How might council be able to utilise our open datasets to assist the community during climate change and significant weather events? We have published datasets that have been built for command centres during adverse weather conditions. What opportunities also exist for these datasets to be used to enable and protect our community during periods of significant weather events?
