Hello! We are Martina, Barbara, Evelyn and Guadalupe. We developed Fire Alert App, based on the Spot That Light challenge
_________________
WHY FIRE ALERT?
- Fire prevention is not a subject that is assimilated in the culture of the population. In general, the scope of this problem is aimed at special brigades.
- The efficiency in tasks such as preventing and placating a fire, or caring for and assisting the citizens affected during the fire, is affected by the lack of a comprehensive policy of action among the actors involved.
-During the spread of a fire the population is at risk. It is our responsibility that people with potential disabilities can also issue and receive alerts to stay safe.
________________
NEED
Connect communities, creating a link between citizens and fire assistance services, for the prevention of incidents and the spread of disasters. The population will be a key piece to carry it out.
________________
PROPOSAL
Democratize the use of innovative technologies and put them at the service of the population to turn them into active participating actors for fire prevention and mitigation.
Generate an interactive application where anyone who transits or lives in risky areas can alert neighboring communities and nearby brigades about possible fires, through satellite and geolocation technologies provided by NASA. System, ensures, collects information that can avoid serious infrastructure problems and save human lives.
We worked under the user experience methodology

WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE DO IT
PREVENTION:
Brigade: Check the conditions of the environment, especially in risky areas
What technologies do we use?
- Satellite images of NASA, Modis and Viris Sensors.
- Geolocation to issue alerts.
- Use of drones to have data at the moment about critical places
________________
FOCUS FIRE ALERT:
Citizen: Notify authorities by sending a text message or image that will take the exact location of the person. It will issue an alarm to the neighborhood social network.
Brigade/ Assistants: Once the alert is confirmed, a drone will be sent to recognize the area and obtain images in conjunction with a meteorological satellite that will allow the calculation of the area of action of the brigade and therefore the resources needed to turn off the focus.
What technologies do we use?
- Iot Drones
-Meteorological satellites
-Geolocation
________________
PROPAGATION: What happens when fire endangers people's lives?
Citizen: You will have a trusted contact loaded in the app, so that given the help alert, it receives information about your situation. It will load your most important clinical data in order to expedite the emergency service.Each citizen will have accessibility options according to their situation.
-View escape routes
-You can ask for a vehicle if you don't have it
-You can communicate through the app with the emergency service that is going to look for it.
Brigade/Assistants: Can incorporate People that is specialized in sign language.
