aio-georss-gdacs
An async GeoRSS client library for GDACS feeds.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive license. It fills a specific niche for async GDACS feed consumption. Install it if you need to monitor disaster events with geographic filtering; skip it if you don't need real-time emergency data.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.11 or later and an active async session from aio-georss-client's underlying transport.
- Low install friction with only two runtime dependencies.
- Active maintenance with a recent release (53 days old) and commits through July 2026.

What it is and what it does
aio-georss-gdacs is an async Python client for consuming real-time disaster and emergency event feeds from GDACS. It wraps aio-georss-client to parse structured disaster data including earthquakes, floods, cyclones, tsunamis, droughts, volcanoes, and wildfires, returning typed feed entries with geographic coordinates, severity levels, and event metadata.
You instantiate a GdacsFeed or GdacsFeedManager with home coordinates, then call update() to retrieve events filtered by radius and category. The library returns a status code (OK, OK_NO_DATA, or ERROR) and a list of entries; each entry contains coordinates, alert level, event type, population exposure, duration, and other incident details. A feed manager tracks changes across updates, reporting new, updated, and removed entries.
Use it for
- Home automation systems monitoring nearby disasters to trigger alerts or adjust settings based on emergency severity.
- Emergency response dashboards displaying real-time disaster events within a geographic radius of interest.
- Environmental monitoring applications tracking specific disaster types in target regions.
- Integration with notification systems to alert users when high-severity events occur near specified coordinates.
