Event Qualifier

Observed rainfall against real HIRDS v4 depths, with the TARP position for the current event and every past storm on the same axes.

Answers does this event qualify for Emergency Works, and how does it compare with the ones that cost us money
LIVE

Forward Screening

MET Norway forecast rainfall for the next 120 hours, screened per gauge and tracked across the TARP plot so you can watch it approach a damaging combination.

Answers where to look, and when — never what will close
LIVE

Routing & Detour Tool

The delivered engine. Close any road, route the detour, see what severs and what isolates. Every other dashboard stands on this.

Answers if this road goes, what does it cost the network
M4

Slip Risk

Slope instability separated from surface flooding. Long-memory antecedent drives the ranking; the lag between the two mechanisms is made legible.

Needs long-API percentile calibrated against the gauge record
M5

Closure Scenarios

Forecast-red links pushed into the routing engine on a button press. User-asserted by design — an automatic display would read as a prediction of closure.

Needs forecast.json per-link scores joined by lid
M6

Bridge Scour Watch

A watch list, not a scour model: bridges on catchments under a severe forecast, cross-referenced with scour history and the weight-restriction schedule.

Data-gated waterway opening, pier form, deck level, founding detail
M1

EW Close-out Export

The week-after artefact: rainfall, peak ARI by gauge and duration, antecedent state and event window, formatted for an NZTA Emergency Works application.

Needs run archive (accruing) + the NZTA EW form template
M3

Evidence Weighting

Damage register and the WC141 claim record geocoded to links, so rankings cite the council's own cost history instead of a model's opinion.

Needs road + RP geocoding · this also fills the blank cost column above
new

Fordcast

Ford crossings as their own instrument — passable, marginal or impassable, rather than a rainfall depth. The question a grader driver actually asks.

Needs ford inventory with catchment and deck level, plus a stage proxy
new

Seismic

The other way this network fails. Shaking intensity against the same links, feeding the same closure engine so a quake scenario routes detours as a storm does.

Scope to confirm GeoNet feed choice, susceptibility source, screening vs triage
M2

Per-link forecast scores

The join that turns the map from interpolated to real: forecast.json, 29 timesteps, flood and slip scores on 1,200–1,600 selected links.

In progress the current blocker for M4 and M5
M7

Annual recalibration

Every storm adds a row to the calibration set, so the contours on the TARP plots tighten each year. This is the recurring value, and the reason it is a subscription.

Needs nothing — it starts the moment the archive does
Screening tools — not a warning service. These are network-scale screening indicators to help decide where and when to look. They are not hydraulic or flood models, carry no service-level guarantee, and do not replace official advice. MetService remains the authoritative source for weather warnings; NZTA determines Emergency Works eligibility. HIRDS v4 depths are used here for development and testing; the licence position for a hosted commercial service is unresolved.
