With the X5 Mobile PRO, we gained precise location data, which allowed us to conduct accurate field surveys, a crucial factor in disaster response planning for our communities.
Our project exemplifies how Free and Open Source Software can empower local communities to access tools that enhance their resilience, transforming limitations into innovative solutions.
Collaborative mapping capabilities through QGIS Cloud allowed us to connect stakeholders and share vital information in real-time, which is essential during disaster scenarios.
