Monitor Disaster or Emergency using RSOE Website

There are so many natural disasters or emergency situation is prevailing all over the world be it any part of the world. Every day we see there are so many people are dying because of Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Floor or even Earthquakes. So just think how to know that there might be some emergency in certain location, this is where RSOE (National Association of Radio Distress-Signalling and Infocommunications) comes into picture.

According to their website,

The National Association of Radio Distress-Signalling and Infocommunications (RSOE) operates Emergency and Disaster Information Service (EDIS) within the frame of his own web site which has the objective to monitor and document all the events on Earth which may cause disaster or emergency. The main objective is to manage information about events endangering the safety of our own country. Our service is using the speed and the data spectrum of the internet to gather information. We are monitoring and processing several foreign organization’s data to get quick and certified information. This data will be continuously published on our Internet web site. Beside the official information, with the help of special programs nearly 1500-2000 internet press publication will be monitored and the publication containing predefined keywords will be processed. However, these „news” cannot be considered as official and reliable information, but many times we have learnt critical information from the internet press.

The events captured by them are : Seismically activities, Tsunami events, Nuclear power plant status (only USA), Wild animals in danger of biological (only USA), Severe weather events (hailstorm, tornadoes and dangerous winds) in USA, Forest fire events (mostly in US) and Geomagnetic Storm Alert.

They do have operators all around the world which give information about the events like Acid rain, Cold wave, Fires, Floods, Storm, Tsunami and tidal wave etc.

Now if I talk about India as of 12th Sep, 11:00 AM IST, I can see that there was a Vehicle Accident happened yesterday.

The event report is spontaneous, as you can see there was a Biological Hazard in Ontario, Canada just when I was writing this post.

The whole world map looks like below where you can see any place affected at that time.
