The map is built with ArcGIS Online, Esri’s mapping and analytics system, and provides updates on the cyclone and relevant elements using inputs from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD).

These include weather, wind speed, number of households and population in the affected area. The map is consolidating the information from various authoritative feeds and sources for an integrated view of the movement and impact of Cyclone Yaas, The Indian Express reported.

Users will also get relevant information on affected areas by zooming into the map. This includes shelter locations, weather and wind station data from buoys and even infrared/colourised satellite imagery, the report added.

“The objective is to give a common view to relevant authorities, departments and social organisations in order to maximize reach-out to citizens so that there is timely action for the safety of life and property. The Cyclone Yass Live Path Map is specifically created to provide updates leveraging Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology,” Agendra Kumar, Managing Director, Esri India was quoted as saying by The Indian Express.
