Informing Disaster Management through Human Mobility Data: A Case Study and Toolkit
Rating: 4.8 (11)
"DT4D 1.0 winning project shows through a case study of the 2017 Puebla earthquake in Mexico, key use cases for human mobility data to inform disaster preparedness and response."
Mobile phone data helped targeted life-saving aid and reconstruction expenditure after the Haiti and Nepal earthquakes of 2010 and 2015, but until recently remained hard to access and provided limited spatial resolution.
However, WB teams can now request GPS-accuracy mobility datasets from Cuebiq and Unacast through Development Data Partnership - opening new opportunities to provide operational insights to clients.
Through a case study of the 2017 Puebla earthquake in Mexico, this Webinar demonstrates key use cases for human mobility data to inform disaster preparedness and response. These include analyzing baseline mobility patterns within a city; estimating the length and duration of post-disaster displacement; and analyzing recovery trends of rich vs. poor areas. The World Bank presents an open-source code toolkit (MobilKit) to produce these metrics across other regions and disaster events at a low cost.

la gestión de desastres a través de datos de movilidad humana sirven para para informar la preparación y respuesta ante desastres. Estos incluyen el análisis de patrones de movilidad de referencia dentro de una ciudad; estimar la duración y duración del desplazamiento posterior a un desastre
