About

The Community Disaster Resilience Tool (CDRT) is an online map tool by Healthcare Ready. It helps officials and community leaders understand risks from natural disasters and health issues in the U.S. The tool uses data on hazards, healthcare infrastructure, and chronic conditions to show where help is needed most during crises. Data comes from sources like FEMA and CDC, stored in Google BigQuery for easy updates. CDRT aims to prepare communities better for disasters by highlighting areas with high health risks that may worsen during events like floods or wildfires.
