## 🔴 The Problem
Airtel Nigeria faces an average of **43 fibre cuts per day**, with ~90% of damage concentrated in Abuja alone — caused by road construction, vandalism, and poor coordination between contractors and telecoms operators.
The current response is **reactive**: patrol teams are dispatched *after* the damage occurs, leaving millions of Nigerians — especially in rural and underserved communities — without connectivity for hours or days.
> **There is no proactive, data-driven system to predict where the next fibre cut will happen before it does.**
FibreWatch AI changes that.

## 💡 The Solution
FibreWatch AI is a **machine learning-powered risk dashboard** that:
- 🗺️ **Clusters** historical fibre cut locations into spatial hotspots using **DBSCAN**
- 🤖 **Predicts** cut probability per corridor using a **Random Forest classifier**
- 📊 **Visualises** risk zones on an interactive **Nigeria heatmap**
- 🚨 **Alerts** network operations teams to HIGH-risk zones before cuts occur
- 📡 **Runs on low bandwidth** — built with Streamlit, deployable on any device
