  "abstract": "MotivationWith the scaling frequency and intensity of extreme heat events across the globe, it is critical for public institutions to develop early detection systems and continuous monitoring of these events and their impacts. In Brazil, Rio de Janeiro was the first city to publish its heat protocol, with the Rio Heat Dashboard as a central component of this system.\n\nImplementationThe dashboard was implemented using R/Shiny and integrates climatic and health data from multiple sources.\n\nGeneral featuresThe application comprises real-time heat exposure monitoring and automatic alert level classification, which is monitored daily by multiple municipal actors and supports activation of actions specified in the heat protocol. It also features a health impact module, which lists each heat event and its impact on mortality, and primary care and emergency visits.\n\nAvailabilityThe source for full reproducibility is available through https://github.com/joaohmorais/RioHeatDashboard.",
