Heat-Stress Early Warning System for Outdoor Workers
Heat-Stress Early Warning System for Outdoor Workers
Rajasthan regularly records some of India's highest summer temperatures, and outdoor workers — construction labourers, farmers, street vendors — face escalating heat-stroke and heat-stress risk with little structured warning or protection mechanism reaching them directly.
Key Features Sought
Hyperlocal (block/ward-level) heat-index forecasting using available weather data
Simple SMS/voice alerts in regional language with practical safety guidance
Administrative dashboard to plan cooling shelter locations and timing advisories
Integration with labour department databases to reach registered construction/MGNREGA workers
