Item Description:
The purpose of the project is to empower communities to better manage their response to disasters by ensuring an effective, reliable and resilient communication network is in place in the very early stages after the occurrence of a disaster. This will entail deploying solar powered Wi-Fi nodes forming point to point and point to multipoint wireless links throughout the community. After adequate capacity building a local server will also be deployed that will allow the communities to capture meaningful data and provide notices and updates in the early stages post a major disaster. It will further allow lifesaving communications among the community members and foster greater interaction and information sharing in the aftermath of a disaster.
