Server routes request current USGS earthquake GeoJSON and NASA FIRMS wildfire CSV.
TRUST & METHODOLOGY
Terraguard turns public hazard feeds into a transparent exposure workflow. Every incident is source-linked, every calculation is explainable, and every outbound channel remains disabled until it is configured.
01 · From signal to alert
The map requests current regional events. History combines full-year USGS records with worldwide, dated five-day FIRMS windows.
Server routes request current USGS earthquake GeoJSON and NASA FIRMS wildfire CSV.
Both feeds become one strict event contract; nearby fire pixels are grouped into activity clusters.
Magnitude, depth, and clustered FRP produce a transparent severity and danger radius.
Turf calculates distance in the browser and the server verifies exposure before dispatch.
Claude Sonnet summarizes the selected event using fresh, cited USGS and FIRMS area records.
Configured providers run independently and return an auditable result for every attempt.
02 · Operating principles
Location is requested only after your explicit action. Coordinates remain in browser memory, are not written to a database, and are never sent to Claude.
Incident records link back to USGS or NASA FIRMS. Vector maps credit OpenStreetMap, OpenMapTiles, OpenFreeMap, and Mapterhorn.
A degraded feed, AI service, or message provider does not hide healthy sources or stop sibling notification channels.
Claude receives only the selected public event and fresh nearby USGS/FIRMS summaries. Answers cite the supplied sources and identify evidence limits.
