System Builder to Research Changemaker
Ascendens Asia International Research Institute featured Mark and the system, which LGU personnel and first responders validated before it went to Kuala Lumpur.
“Research is not only about finding something new, but finding solutions that make a genuine impact.”Read the feature on aairi.org
Problem
During emergencies, local government units need one place to receive reports with exact locations, coordinate rescuers and warn residents quickly.
Approach
A mobile-first progressive web app lets citizens send real-time emergency reports with live location, while an AI assistant guides them through what to do next.
An admin dashboard gives responders real-time GIS tracking, rescue coordination tools and a dedicated portal for rescuers.
Disaster alerts and voice calls keep residents and responders in contact throughout an incident.
My role
I led the research, design and development, and I was chosen to present the system at the 9th SIMP-AAIRI-BCP Multidisciplinary Research Festival and, as one of six delegates, at the 24th Joint Multidisciplinary Research Conference in Kuala Lumpur.
