Critical Asset Management System

Helping nations become disaster resilient to save lives and rebuild quickly

Thanks for looking into the open-source CAMS project. If you’re interested in contributing go over to CAMS-Dashboard and check out the issues. Or visit the roadmap.

This repository isn't in use anymore, but thanks for having a look.

CAMS Objective

Enable islands, cities, and communities to effectively plan for disasters so they can rebuild faster and save lives in the event and aftermath of natural and man-made catastrophes.

Develop and deliver a mobile and desktop application that users can securely access to learn more about their critical assets and the potential failure chains associated with each. The application will:

  • Build an inventory of all critical assets and the relevant data associated with them, for example, geographical coordinates.
  • Capture key contact information for assets – This could include multiple people for a power plant, through to a school caretaker who may have the keys to the school and need to be contacted to open it up as a place of shelter.
  • Capture data on disaster severity and impact. These can range from cybersecurity threats to natural disasters and each has differing levels of criteria in terms of impact.
  • Plot relationships, spatial and dependency, between critical assets to identify failure chains.
  • Provide the ability to highlight the impact on critical assets and their failure chains based on the severity and type of disaster.
