- Using historical data from the Emergency Events Database (EM-DAT), we can distribute the ep!k devices in areas known to be high risk. The devices are connected to the cellphone grid or to local low-energy bluetooth relays.
- Our servers offer an API to the crowdsourced data, allowing emergency services and first responders to assist those at the biggest risk.
- EPiK - emergency preparedness kit for me (I) #name
- 2 ways communication
- 3 comms notifications (Trigger)
- EPiK - A geolocation technology powered by solar and kinetic energy, that allows you to incorporate to everyday items that you are comfortable with. It is triggered by 2-3 commands, which indicate (in an emergency or disaster setting) that you are okay or not okay. You also receive notifications from others to confirm there is a disaster situation and inform status of emergency services.

- Economic and Human Impacts of Disasters, 2005-2014
- Why do we need a Disaster Loss Database? An answer comes from Serbia
- (CH - sorry can't comment on mobile, I only added the unisdr site, can u add the above two to the reference page - canva)
- Between 1995 and 2015, EM-DAT recorded 6,457 weather-related disasters, which claimed a total of 606,000 lives and affected more than 4 billion people.
- In 2015 EM- Data indicated 14 million people had been affected by weather-related disasters. It is extremely challenging to mitigate the impact of weather-related disasters have on residents. One of the key findings in a The Human Cost of Weather-Related Disasters was 'Why do residents not evacuate in time, and how they interpret disaster warnings.’
- Ep!K can assist with pre, during and post-storm(? disaster). With the use of Low energy Bluetooth devices, the EP!k devices act as a transmitter to feed crowd-sourced data to emergency services and the local community to aid in the preparations and handling of disasters
- Ep!k will empower individuals to become everyday heroes by relaying their status and enabling them to be first responders to those requesting assistance nearby.
- When Hurricane Sandy hit New York, a member of Team Ep!k was a first responder. She knocked on every door to help. She recalls a family of six who had not eaten in three days. With Ep!k, those who need help can request and be matched with the closest first responder to assist them before pressured local emergency services can reach their location.
- Ep!ks is a small device with minimal requirements in energy(can delete this part), powered by kinetic, perpetual, or solar energy. The device communicate via the cell phone network or low powered Bluetooth. The Ep!k Kit and system can be deployedahead of time in situations which have a status of a Blue Zone (Char - don't think “blue zone” is important, if u r going to add it here, explain it like readers don't know what it means.)
- The data collected is made available to emergency services which are integrated into the database Using the companion application, we can feed pre-created content via the app, for offline consumption. (This function will only work when the app is downloaded offline)
- Information will include articles or videos on Basic First Aid on what to expect to during and after a disaster situation and how to articles. Via the Ep!k devices, anyone with a registered device can become a first responder, request assistance and support the emergency services.
- To some extent natural disaster can be predicted, allowing the affected area to be placed on high alert also known as Blue Alert, This is known as the Pre-Storm prep.
- For safety and hygiene reasons all Ep!k devices will be distributed sealed. If any of the seals are broken, the device will have to be discontinued. This precaution is for health and safety reasons and data protection reasons to ensure there is no information or diseases on the device which could potentially infect the new user.
- We will have additional devices for those who are colour blind or blind
- (CH - I thought that's why t vibrates? But like the mention of accessibility, this is humanity tech for sure)
- Alongside Ep!k devices, we will also allocate beacons within the crisis zone area based on pre-existing post-disaster data obtained from the Emergency Events Database (EM-Data) and Disaster Information Management system.
- Ep!k will be deployed to the affected areas, volunteers and staff will set up epic devices and systems for the local community. Team Ep!k will work collaboratively alongside local, nation press, government agencies, and social media networks to ensure as many people as possible are aware of the need to collect an Ep!k device.
- Each Ep!k device will have an associated barcode or Unique Identify code, which will hold the following information
- Date of Birth
- General Practioner details
- Passport Number
- Blood Type
- Pre assisting medical conditions
- Next of Kin
- Do they have any allergies?
- Do they have any disabilities?
- Do they have any distinctive marks such as tattoos and or birthmarks?
- During storm:
- When the natural disaster happens, the devices will be active by the user selecting the corresponding button to their current situation
- Under the following
- Relay
- Request
- Respond
- Alongside the system, we will distribute information on regard S.I.D
- S stands for Safe
- I stand for Injured
- D stands for Danger
- Working alongside emergency services we will pre categorise which incidents or injuries come under Safe, Injured or in Danger; this will inform the user in understanding which function they need to use Relay they are safe, request assistance or awaiting a response.
- Example:
- Jack's Profile:
- Jack is 29 he lives in Darwin Aus, and has average fitness; he has been trained in first aid while working in a local leisure centre
- If Jack is unharmed by the storm, he will request Safe on the Ep!k device. If he has access to his phone, he will open the corresponding app. Jack has downloaded the application so that he can access the content offline.
- The system will then register he is safe. He has two options to either go to a safe point or assist the emergency services with dealing with those at risk. Assuming Jack has access to his phone and he has stated he can help others who have registered on the system they are in danger or are injured.
- The app will then direct Jack to the closest person. The App will ask Jack some questions, with either the use of real people in a chat based function or the use of Artificial Integeilnce the app will ask Jack some questions based on his arrival at the casualties destination.
- i.e
- Are they responding
- Are they trapped
- Can you check their pulse
- Do they have a pulse
- Can you take a picture of their face, distinctive marks, and or injuries
- Based on his response the app will inform him the Emergency services are on the way, this scenario relies on the case of a casualty being in a critical state.
- On the arrival of the Emergency services, Jack can either chose to go with the victim or decide to go on and help others.
- Jack has become an EP!K Hero
- Keri’s Profile
- Keri has two children under the age of 5, and she is pregnant. Both children are safe. However, Keri has diabetes, and she speaks four languages. Keri has pre-download the application for, and On the Ep!k device, Keri selects safe. However, she can not provide physical assistance.
- She selects she is safe and can speak additional languages. Based on her profile the system will link to her children’s profile. The system informs her to go to a safe point. While on route Keri comes in a range of Beacons, she is alerted on her screen via push notification with information on how close she is to the nearest checkpoint. Keri and her family arrive at the checkpoint.
- A volunteer or Military personnel will physically sign them in with pen and paper.
