PROX - Collaborative Security Application for the Population
PROX is a free Android application developed by Venidera, categorized under Utilities & Tools. This collaborative security app aims to provide information and alerts to the populations influenced by the variation of river levels in the areas surrounding hydroelectric power plants.
PROX was created as part of a relationship program that promotes social development in communities around hydroelectric plants. Since 2005, the company has been conducting a series of actions aimed at integrating with the communities in the areas of influence of the plants. The program focuses on providing information to the population, receiving their demands, and establishing partnerships with local leaders, organizations, and actors responsible for security and prevention of the effects of floods, such as Civil Defense, Fire Department, Military Police, and regional press.
With the PROX app, users can follow the operation of the plants, register their personal addresses, and receive alerts of floods. This app is a new channel of information that complements the program's objective of integrating with the population and promoting their safety and well-being.
