Hey devs & tech community! ๐
I recently submitted my open-source project The Digital Lifeline (ุงูุดุฑูุงู ุงูุฑูู ู) to the global Hack for Humanity 2026 hackathon on Devpost, and it has officially made it to the final stage!
About the Project & Technical Stack
The Digital Lifeline is an off-grid, zero-cost decision-support platform engineered specifically for total communication blackout environments during natural disasters and humanitarian crises:
Ad-Hoc Mesh Simulation: Transmits structured JSON payload packets across field nodes via native Python TCP Sockets without requiring commercial internet.
Offline NLP Engine: Employs a lightweight scikit-learn classifier to categorize unstructured field distress messages and flag urgency levels in real time.
Multi-Modal Spatial Engine: Calculates precise ETAs across Foot, 4×4, and Air Helicopter modes based on terrain and coordinates.
Live Command Center & SitReps: Streamlit dashboard paired with automated daily Situation Report archiving for aid auditing.
