Disaster Alerts by Hazard Type: Cyclones, Floods, Volcanoes, Droughts, Wildfires, Earthquakes (GDACS)

gdacs/hazard-events

Returns GDACS disaster events of one hazard type: earthquake (EQ), tropical cyclone (TC), flood (FL), volcano (VO), drought (DR) or wildfire (WF). Each event has the name, country, alert level (Green, Orange or Red), severity, dates and coordinates. By default only Orange and Red events of roughly the last year are listed; narrow by alert level or a date range. At most 100 events, newest first. A query that matches nothing fails as PROVIDER_ERROR with no body instead of returning an empty list. These are automatic estimates, not an official alert, and not for life-safety decisions. GDACS data, served by Eden Engine; not an official GDACS product.
