Mobilkit is an open-source Python software toolkit that enables policy makers to conduct post-disaster assessment using large-scale mobility data. The toolkit allows the user to conduct pre-processing of data, validation of the data representativeness, home and office location estimation, post-disaster displacement analysis, and point-of-interest visit analysis. The purpose of Mobilkit is to provide urban planners, disaster policy makers, and researchers an easy-to-use and practical toolkit to visualize, analyze, and monitor post-disaster disruption and recovery. The software is freely-available on GitHub along with online documentation and Jupyter Notebooks that provides step-by-step tutorials.
