UDIARS, the Unified Disaster Intelligence and Adaptive Response System, helps people and emergency responders stay ahead of disasters.
The platform continuously monitors flood, wildfire, and earthquake risk using real-time environmental data, satellite imagery, geospatial analysis, and historical patterns. When conditions become unsafe, UDIARS provides early warnings and recommends safer routes before roads become hazardous or emergency access is blocked.
UDIARS uses two independent risk engines to evaluate potential hazards at the same time.
Applies established safety thresholds and disaster response guidelines to current conditions.
Identifies complex patterns in historical and real-time data that simple thresholds can miss.
When both models reach the same conclusion, UDIARS increases confidence in the prediction. When the models disagree, UDIARS treats that difference as an early signal of uncertainty and highlights the area for closer attention.
This dual-model approach helps reduce missed hazards and false alarms, which matters because major disaster events are relatively rare and unpredictable.
View current risk conditions using real-time data for your selected region.
Explore historical disasters and replay past flood, wildfire, and earthquake events to understand how UDIARS responds during real-world scenarios.
Every Live Mode score comes from a real public data feed, using a transparent rule set, not a guess.
From NWS forecasts and active alerts. Risk rises with mentions of rain, rises further for heavy rain or flooding, and jumps sharply if a real flood alert is active. The 30/60/90 minute outlook projects forward from there. Past a 0.65 probability at 30 minutes, UDIARS flags its pre-emptive rerouting trigger, the same threshold defined in the patent specification.
Also from NWS data. Risk rises with dry, windy conditions and jumps sharply when a Red Flag Warning or other fire weather alert is active. This sets which evacuation zone is shown: Zone C (Watch), Zone B (Warning), or Zone A (Immediate).
From the USGS earthquake catalog for the past 30 days. Risk scales with how many magnitude 1.5+ quakes occurred and how strong the largest one was. No recent activity means a low background score.
In Live Mode, the dollar estimate is projected from that hazard's current risk score using regional exposure assumptions, in the spirit of the HAZUS-MH modeling described in the specification. It's a sense of scale, not a forecast, and updates each time you refresh. In Demo Mode, the figure is the actual documented loss from that historical event.
Note: Google Maps directions are not hazard-aware and may not be the safest route.
UDIARS draws on real public data feeds, including:
UDIARS is a decision-support tool and should complement, not replace, official emergency alerts and instructions from local authorities.
