GLISSA: A GenAI-Augmented Framework for Real-time Situation Awareness of power Infrastructure based on Crowd Sourced Data
Godfrey Kibalya*, JohnBosco Ssemakula, Richard Musanje
Monitoring critical infrastructure (CI) like national power networks in developing countries is hindered by the limited coverage and high cost of traditional data collection methods (e.g., sensors, SCADA), making real-time situational awareness difficult during service disruptions. In contrast, social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) offer a rich but underutilized source of real-time user
