Pack-it-forms Dashboard

"A situational awareness display for damage assessment data collected from the field in an emergency situation."

Designed to

• Clearly communicate what is known
• … and how well it is (or is not) known
• Draw attention to areas of greatest concern
• Reduce anxiety & increase the sense of control

A map of the city, muted when there is no data

Zones colored by severity as data is received

Summaries provide a general idea of the problems

Triangles under zone title indicate report coverage (in development, will be colored when reported)

Drill down into zones for detailed status by area

Drill down into areas of zones for full history of that area as the situation has evolved

Key Design Elements

• Calming, natural colors
• Time-sensitive: color intensity reflect age of data
• City-wide summary suitable for wall display
• Web app accessible on EOC network
• Self-contained, operates without Internet
• … some mapping elements still in development

Future plans

• Urgent reports list
• Point of interest location markers on all maps
• Distributing dashboard to field stations as well
• Your best ideas for how to improve the EOC
