Municipal staff in San Juan, Puerto Rico do not currently use citizen calls to monitor urban flooding but would be willing to if a phone application was available that would include time-stamped photos of issues.
“(Ramsey et al. 2019) note that municipal staff in San Juan, Puerto Rico do not currently use citizen calls to monitor urban flooding but would be willing to if a phone application was available that would include time-stamped photos of issues”
From Phase II MS4 challenges: moving toward effective stormwater management for small municipalities (2022) · cites this paper as Ramsey et al. 2019
The Conclusion says municipal staff would be willing to integrate citizen flood knowledge if an app recorded photographs and time stamps. It also says hotline reports are already used as indicators of suspected infrastructure problems or flood-vulnerable areas, though not as official data. Thus, the claim overstates the extent to which staff do not currently use citizen calls. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
