Streamlining Crisis Response | A Wagtail CMS Case Study

Hello everyone, my name is Mayte Kling. I'm from Four Digits and I was asked to do a quick demo about the blog post that I recently posted on wagdel. org about the crisis response for veiligheidsregio Utrecht. If you have not seen the blog post on wagdol. org yet, you can find it at the blog section. It contains a lot of information about what we did and what kind of solutions we did But in this case I want to show you what we really did. First let me show you the current website of the Veiligheids Regio Utrecht. So first let me show you the homepage. It's like every other website, it contains news, activities, vacancies, and

of course incidents. Insulin's are the most important thing for the veiligheidsregio Utrecht because they need to tell the people who live there about Current incidents in their region. The incident page gives an overview of incidents in the past. You can see what kind of incidents it are based on its title or icon. If we zoom in on the incident, we can see more details about the incident. We have the title, we have the status, we have the location of the incident. Also, there are updates about these incidents. These can have a map with plotting or an L alert

or just information about the incident. So how does this work in Wagdale? We set up a group for the reporters who are only able to manage incidents. because that is their main priority. And we don't want to distract them with other information In the CMS, there is already information specified about the most common incidents like fire or gas leaks or natural fires or other incidents. Also available in the CMS there are the most common perspectives like extreme weather or fire. Stay out of the smoke.

When we create a new incident, you can see the incident has a title, has a state, active or not, and can be published on Twitter directly. It has a date and a description and a tweet text. What we did voor Veiligheidsregel Utrecht is when you choose a perspective, you get a list of all the perspectives available. So stay down to smoke when it's burnt. But if you choose your incident first, like fire, you get a smaller list, but only the actions related to the fire stayed out of the smoke. This way they can quickly add information and the information is correct.

When an incident is active, you can also see it on the homepage. This way we give an alert to everyone who is visiting the homepage. Another thing that we did is when you change an incident, we put the updates at the top of the page. So it's easy to create a new update about the situation. A last fun item to show you is that we created the plot area. This way, when there's smoke or any other incident information that's based on the plot, we can drag and drop an area on the on the map and save this to use it in an item Here you can see that we created an image based on the city of Arnhem

and we used it in an incident update. I would like to thank you for your time. I hope you enjoyed this video
