Hello everyone,
We have added a document containing the preliminary schema for the sensor data in the Challenge Repository. Some specific details of the sensor data may change slightly in phases 2, 3, and 4, but any deviations from this document will be noted in the more detailed documentation provided in those future phases. For example, first responder location is simplified to have no Z axis value for positional data because we won’t be using multi-story environments initially in simulations and demos.

Can we see the current design dashboard?

Hi Devia, the Challenge Team does not have a dashboard available. The goal of this challenge is to improve the quality of incident command dashboards by incentivizing the crowd to build new dashboards or improve existing ones.

This is something beautiful, but it is another time wasting contest by freelancer.com which has a main rule that a participant should be a "U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the United States". I believe you should put this on the top of the contest description so no one will waste the time looking for possibilities and dreaming of the $1m.
