Speaking with a reporter from VTC News, Mr. Tu Tat Huan, a member of the development team for the thongtincuuho.org map, said that on average, they receive more than 3,000 reports daily from residents in flood-affected areas of Khanh Hoa, Dak Lak , and Gia Lai provinces.
"Since November 20th, the information receiving system has been connected to the Vietnam Fatherland Front . Information from citizens will be directly forwarded to local forces for timely support," Mr. Huan added.

The project team stated that the website has undergone several updates to its data processing flow, thus beginning the process of connecting with rescue teams and establishing communication with the Vietnam Fatherland Front. "Only when the entire flow is fully connected like this will opening the registration form for users to proactively submit information truly be meaningful," Huân shared on his personal page.

The thongtincuuho.org platform is the product of three engineers: Tu Tat Huan, Dang Long, and Nguyen Thi Mai Anh. The project began with the goal of building a digital map reflecting the flooding and traffic congestion situation in Hanoi . By early October, when heavy rains caused severe flooding in Thai Nguyen, Bac Giang, Lang Son, and Cao Bang, the team decided to shift their focus to serving emergency rescue efforts.
A notable feature of the system is its automated operation: AI continuously collects posts and comments from social media, analyzes their location and impact, and then standardizes the data to create a map.
Thanks to this data stream, rescue units can quickly identify priority areas – those with a high concentration of distress calls – and detect areas without a response so they can check on them promptly.

Recently, Mr. Tu Tat Huan also participated in GDG DevFest Hanoi 2025 - a major event for the Northern Vietnam developer community - with a presentation on the topic: "Building impactful applications in hours with Google Cloud and AI solutions".
Speaking to reporters, he said that applications can now be built more simply thanks to "drag-and-drop" modules. The Emergency Information page is also neatly built with several such modules, and these parts can be edited to upgrade or change as needed.
The Rescue Information page is currently supported by several of Mr. Huan's partners in terms of maps and servers. To be able to operate 24/7, the team also seeks to maintain resources and "sometimes uses their own money."
"For me, an application with a strong impact doesn't necessarily have to come from a major technological problem. It's about addressing issues that I recognize need to be tackled and implemented promptly and effectively," Mr. Tat Huan shared after his presentation.
