Tornado hazards can be sourced from multiple agencies including ADINet (ASEAN Disaster Information Network), the U.S. National Weather Service (NWS), and other national disaster management organizations. This particular sample originates from ADINet, which reports disaster events within the ASEAN region with a different property structure than CAP-based weather alerts. ## Tornado-Specific Properties ### Incident Data The `incident.properties` object for this ADINet-sourced tornado provides impact assessment data and location details rather than the standard CAP alert fields. Key incident properties include: * `affectedPersons` - Number of individuals affected (e.g., `176`) * `fatalities` - Number of confirmed fatalities (e.g., `0`) * `wounded` - Number of injured persons (e.g., `0`) * `affectedHouses` - Number of houses affected (e.g., `44`) * `sourceName` - Name of the reporting source (e.g., `"ADINet"`) * `admin0` / `admin1` / `admin2` - Administrative region hierarchy (e.g., `"Indonesia"` / `""` / `"Lampung Selatan"`) * `sourceUrl` - Direct link to the ADINet report page * `event` - Event type name (e.g., `"Tornadoes"`) * `hazardName` - Full hazard display name (e.g., `"Tornadoes - SE of Bandar Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia"`) * `incidentLocationName` - Human-readable location (e.g., `"SE of Bandar Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia"`) * `reportDate` / `eventDate` / `effective` - ISO 8601 timestamps for the event * `sourceDisclosure` - Disclaimer about data preliminary nature * `senderName` - Full name of the issuing organization * `missing` - Number of missing persons * `iso_code` - ISO country code (e.g., `"ID"`) ### Features The `features` property contains a GeoJSON FeatureCollection with a single exposure area feature. Unlike CAP-based weather alerts, ADINet tornado hazards do not include CAP\_INFO features. The feature collection also includes `incidentType` metadata describing the tornado event type and its associated field mappings. ### Exposure Areas Tornado hazards from ADINet use a single exposure level: * **Level 1**: 10km buffer around the reported incident location ## Sample Response ```json { "name": [ { "locale": "en", "value": "Tornadoes - SE of Bandar Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia" } ], "description": [ { "locale": "en", "value": "The ASEAN Disaster Information Network (ADINet) has issued a Tornadoes warning for February 16, 2026 03:00:09 UTC through February 17, 2026 03:13:14 UTC.\n\nIt is estimated that 168,000 people, 43,000 households, and $813 Million (USD) of infrastructure* are within the affected area(s).
