The complete process Direct Relief uses to prepare for and respond to Hurricane Sandy using Palantir's analytics suite. With this technology, Direct Relief connects clinics to essential medical resources by using the best available insights to assess needs, scale issues and keep up with the rapid pace of events. Smart preparation is the best defense against hurricanes. That's why at the start of each #hurricaneseason, Direct Relief places hurricane preparedness kits and modules in secure locations in disaster-prone areas, providing healthcare facilities with the medications and medical supplies they need in the wake of a storm.
