The Challenge: Unifying Disaster Data from Diverse Sources
In the realm of disaster management, different data providers have different event data standards. Integrating data from multiple sources into a single internal system becomes complex and cumbersome. While global and local data suppliers offer valuable insights, they often fall short of providing a comprehensive and cohesive picture of disaster-related information.

How it works
Recent and Historical Natural Disaster Database
Kontur Event Feed aggregates data from various reputable organizations, such as GDACS, EM-DAT, FIRMS, CalFire, NIFC, NOAA, and many others. Our platform merges the same events from different sources, ensuring you have access to the most comprehensive and reliable data available for each event.
Exploring the Dynamic Nature of Disasters
Understanding the progression of a disaster is crucial for effective disaster management. To facilitate this, we present a comprehensive timeline of how disasters unfold over time, presented in the form of episodes.
Think of episodes as the building blocks of the disaster timeline. Each Episode represents a distinct phase or stage within the disaster’s development. From the initial warning signs to the peak of the crisis and through the recovery process, Episodes capture the dynamic nature of disasters. Our platform organizes and categorizes these phases, enabling users to better understand the disaster’s evolution.
