New Delhi: Cyclone DANA is making its pitfall in the coastal areas of West Bengal and Odisha. Naturally, a smooth flow of information during such a geographical catastrophe becomes very much imperative. Naturally, to bridge the gap of information, the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) has stepped in with its 24×7 monitoring system.
The new application is designed to provide critical insights into the movement of Cyclone Dana. The application is designed in such a way that it can pull data from various sources and collate the information in one place for the concerned people who will be under the direct impact of the cyclone. These data will be presented in the dynamic dashboard of ESRI.
Monitoring application of the ESRI
Agendra Kumar, the Managing director of ESRI remarked:
Disaster preparedness helps protect lives, property, and livelihoods, while ensuring faster recovery and minimising long-term impacts. Live data during disasters like Cyclone Dana enable the authorities to make critical decisions, such as where to issue evacuation orders, how to mobilise resources and more…
Benefits of the App
The major benefit of the application is that it offers real-time tracking of the cyclone. Furthermore, it also tracks the path through which the Cyclone will be heading towards Bengal and Odisha. It will also provide localised information on the entire geographical disaster.
Landfall of the Cyclone DANA is expected to come in between October 24 and 26. Regions like Odisha, southern West Bengal and nearby coastal areas are likely to be affected by the Cyclone DANA.
How to get the ESRI app to monitor the Cyclone DANA?
Concerned people can visit the dashboard of the DANA Cyclone monitoring website to check the real-time tracking of the cyclone.
As it is a web-based app, there will be no additional hassle of downloading or installing anything. The link which is mentioned above will take the concerned people to the direct dashboard of the Environmental Systems Research.
