Why Disaster Scout Exists
Emergency information is often fragmented across multiple agencies, maps and websites.
Disaster Scout aims to bring official hazards, incidents and warnings into one easier-to-view experience while still encouraging users to follow official emergency service advice.
Built by an Australian emergency management and public information professional with experience across emergency services, warnings and disaster communication.
Important Notice
Disaster Scout aggregates publicly available emergency information from official sources.
Always follow instructions from emergency services and check official government sources during emergencies.
