Check recent disaster data for a project location

A coordinate request can prompt a focused lookup of recent natural disaster data for the location you care about.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get latest natural disasters by coordinates

Retrieve the latest natural disaster data for a location.

Why this helps

Relevant disaster information can be missed when it takes a separate manual search for each project location.

  • Look up latest natural disaster data for supplied coordinates.
  • Receive a concise summary in your chosen report channel.
  • Start the check with an HTTP request from your project backend.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adafruit IO and Ambee once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the location disaster lookup.
  • 3Tell Notis to use incoming latitude and longitude to retrieve latest natural disaster data and summarize the returned events.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and a report channel.
  • 5Send one real request with valid coordinates to test the workflow.
