Kuhama: Evacuation Planner

Kuhama helps families and neighbors coordinate multi-trip evacuations before storm peaks, rising floodwaters, or severe weather road closures.

When severe weather approaches, households sharing limited vehicles must decide who and what moves first. Kuhama schedules sequential evacuation trips across participating households so passengers and high-priority belongings reach safety before roads become impassable.

HOW KUHAMA HELPS

• Household Trip Planning: Enter the number of people needing transport, distinguishing between able adults, children, individuals requiring walking assistance, and passengers who must be carried. Allocate available vehicle seats across multiple runs.

• Asset Prioritization: Reserve space for essential cargo—such as identification papers, emergency medicine, food, water, tools, or livestock—without displacing passengers.

• Fair Vehicle Coordination: Distribute transport fairly between households that have vehicles and neighbors traveling on foot. The scheduling engine prioritizes vulnerable individuals and ensures balanced evacuation progress.

• Lane Coordination: Connect with neighbors using an invite code or on-screen QR code to join a shared coordination lane. Synchronize encrypted trip requirements and departure updates through a secure relay using the Sync lane action.

• On-Device Scheduling: Each phone independently verifies signed household facts and calculates the departure timetable directly on the device. Personal names and private notes remain on your phone; neighbors see only verified numbers and needs.

• Silent Update Prompts: Receive optional low-priority notifications when an invited neighbor updates lane facts, prompting you to sync the latest schedule.

IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS

Kuhama is a planning utility for scheduling departures. It does not monitor live weather, detect flood crests, or predict storm paths. Always obey official evacuation orders and guidance from local authorities and emergency services. Never enter flooded roadways or drive into hazardous conditions.
