Synthesis of The Study Guide

The document discusses several studies related to developing mobile applications to improve disaster response and preparedness in the Philippines. It describes how natural disasters frequently impact the country and how applications could help provide real-time information during emergencies to aid rescue efforts and monitor safety. The studies aimed to create tools for assessing post-disaster needs, educating people on disaster preparedness through a mobile app, and improving information distribution and response times during disasters.

Synthesis of the Study

What are the Development tools they utilized?

Possible Answer: Mobile Development Tools, Web Development Tools

What are What are the features they utilized?

Possible Answer: Calamity Response, Rescue Monitoring

Explanation: In this feature, the client will be going to request rescue if they need rescue with an option
to choose either Calamity/Disaster and Emergency like car accidents.

DISASTER RESPONSE
 Risk reduction and management
 The Philippines has been hit by a number of natural and man-made calamities. Despite its
magnificent and natural beauty, the land is constantly affected by these disasters
 The study conducted by Angeles et al. (2019) the researchers stated that Natural disasters
such as floods, typhoons, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes are known to be common
in the Philippines due to geographic factors. The health, lives, properties, livelihoods, and
living environments of people were all harmed as a result of these catastrophic disasters.
The developers built a web-based application that serves as a Post Disaster Needs
Assessment (PDNA) tool for the National Capital Region (NCR), which is an effective
post-disaster response that could help save more lives and reduce the calamity's negative
effects
 Apart from earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, the Philippines is surrounded by
enormous bodies of water, rendering it prone to the most common/recurring calamities
such as storms and landslides. This research provides a framework for the creation of a
mobile application that improves local community authorities' and people' information
distribution during disasters. Response time and rescue will be improved with real-time
information reporting. Residents' safety may be monitored by a safety check poll if the
database was kept up to date.
 they stated that because of climate change, disaster preparedness and risk reduction is one
of the critical issues that must be considered in today's changing era. Many individuals
have died in recent years as a result of their absence of preparedness for different
disasters and risks, particularly those related to calamities such as typhoons and
earthquakes. Typhoons are one of the natural disasters that kill many people in the
Philippines every year. One of the key causes was a lack of information about how to
decrease risks and prepare for disasters before, during, and after they occurred. This
research focused on creating iRubwat, an Ilocano term meaning preparedness, a mobile
application that delivers disaster and risk reduction information. The technical quality of
iRubwat was assessed using on the basis of the following criteria: usability, efficacy, and
efficiency Assistive Technology and Accessibility
 In terms of communication blackout during rescue operations, the prototype delivers a
significant improvement in real-time tracking. In the case of a disaster, it provides certain
functions that will help rescuers and volunteers in enhancing search, rescue, and recovery
operations without requiring them to wear a device. During regular days, it serves as an
identification system that is admissibly needed in cluster groups e.g. (schools and
companies).
 they stated that emergency and disaster situations are becoming more common in all
areas around the world, especially in high countries like the Philippines. However,
emergency and disaster response applications in smartphones in the Philippines remain
underrepresented in the research. This study uses a survey based on the Unified Theory
of Adoption and Use of Technology model to assess citizen acceptance of recently
introduced emergency and disaster response applications on a smartphone
 the researchers developed a system entitled “IRespondPH, a mobile and web-based
application for Post Disaster Need Assessment (PDNA) and disaster response in the
Philippines”. Its main objective is to provide citizens with real-time disaster information
and to help disaster managers in making data-driven decisions in the aftermath of a
disaster based on citizen data. The Philippines is one of the world's most hazard-prone
countries, with natural disasters such as tropical cyclones, floods, earthquakes, drought,
and volcanic eruptions. Many developments in the Philippines have been delayed as a
result of the worst of the calamities, that has had a negative impact on people's health,
lives, property, livelihood, and living environment.
Disaster preparedness
 This project is a disaster preparedness smartphone app that will educate Manila residents
on what to do in the case of an earthquake, flood, fire, or typhoon, as well as how to build
an emergency pack.

 they stated that the transmission of danger information is one of the most difficult tasks
during a disaster. The lack of information and awareness in disaster preparedness is also
evident, as some individuals are unaware of the damages that disasters can do. One aspect
that may resolve these issues is the usage of a mobile application. The objective of this
research is to determine the user experience design of a mobile application intended for
household, barangay, and municipal users in order to improve the province of
Marinduque's disaster management system. Empathy, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test
are five steps of the Design Thinking approach that were used to determine the current
situation or experiences, problems and issues, and possible solutions to their concern
