Our mission is to empower victims of sexual harassment or sexual assault to actively report their experiences anonymously through geotagged posts and pictures and contribute to a map visualization of sexual harassment available for all users.
Through these anonymous geo-tagged posts, users can not only help other users navigate their cities safely but also provide data for NPOs and police enforcement to take future meaningful action. Besides a social network between users, we will visualize the data real-time and ideally create an API (future feature) to serve as tools for NPOs/police enforcement/etc to use.
We took a 4 prong approach to this problem: community-driven, anonymous space to report injustice, real time data, and accountability.
Each user is affiliated with their campus because we believe that students are motivated by making their own campus better.
Users can report an incident to the app as a bystander or victim anonymously through geotagged posts that we use to generate a map visualization for users.
As reports populate our map, we provide real time data through a REST API for University administration, non-profits, police, student groups and organizations and users to use to for data analysis, data visualizations or campus sexual assault reports.
By providing our data publicly, we believe that we are holding Universities more accountable for their current efforts on sexual harassment/violence on their campus.
Feature | Goals |
---|---|
Reporting | anonymous reporting system with a community. |
Google Maps | reports are shown on a google map, details are visible by clicking each pin. |
RESTful API | providing developers to use our data to build cool apps. |
a user enters a zipcode or we collect geodata of te user so that she/he can view reports within their community. They can simply click an individual pin on Goolge Maps to navigate to details of the report.
our belief is that reporting should be simple, intuitive and available. We collect minimum required data from a report, keeping the reporter's privacy.
