DesignSafe Academy Project: Identifying Social Disparities in the Use of Reporting Systems During Natural Hazards—A Houston Case Study

Situational awareness data inequity could translate to inequitable emergency response and recovery assistance. This project collected historical community flood reports and contextualized them with sociodemographic and flood inundation data to quantify and visualize situational awareness data equity during Hurricane Harvey in Houston. Insights gained during this project will enable inequity-aware emergency response and recovery strategies and promote long-term community resilience.
