Tegucigalpa's digital layer publishes what the city cannot control. Laser sensors on the streams report river levels but trigger nothing — closing a road is left to whoever reads the alert — and the water unit's rotation calendar tells each neighbourhood which day its water is due, while manual valves and falling reservoirs decide whether it arrives.

The atlas documents 2 projects in Tegucigalpa: 2 still running without a verdict. Every entry carries an evidence grade — the strongest here is official (1 entry) — and links its sources.

One city the atlas reads next to Tegucigalpa — the reason first, then the entries it rests on. Chosen by hand from the Tegucigalpa threads below, not counted out of them.

1. 🇲🇱 Bamako

   Two capitals whose most dependable digital service is a published schedule of what they cannot supply — power in one, water in the other — beside flood tools built cheaply, from volunteers in one city and laser sensors in the other.

   • UMAPS Water Rationing Calendar ↔ EDM-SA Published Load-Shedding Schedule for Bamako
   • Río Choluteca Real-Time Flood Sensor Network (Sistema de Alerta Temprana) ↔ OpenStreetMap Bamako Decentralized Mapping

Every editorial link from Tegucigalpa's entries into another city, strongest first. Each one is a statement about two projects, not about two cities — the three above are the ones the atlas is willing to make at city level.

• 🇨🇴 Medellín: SIATA Early Warning Network Same genre - warn, don't act: SIATA's cameras once caught a fatal flood live with no closure; Tegucigalpa's sensors are warning-only too.
• 🇿🇦 Cape Town: Day Zero: Cape Town's Drought Demand Management Cape Town rationed by metered household quota; Tegucigalpa rations by published calendar — no meters needed, no enforcement either.
• 🇩🇰 Copenhagen: Copenhagen Bathing Water Forecast & Overflow Warning System Both warn instead of enforcing: Copenhagen forecasts bathing risk from sewer data; Tegucigalpa's laser sensors just relay flood readings.
• 🇲🇱 Bamako: EDM-SA Published Load-Shedding Schedule for Bamako Same genre: a capital publishing its scarcity — Bamako schedules power cuts, Tegucigalpa schedules water days.
• 🇳🇪 Niamey: CityTaps Prepaid Smart Water Meters Niamey put scarcity logic into prepaid meters and failed; Tegucigalpa's low-tech calendar at least tells you when the tap runs.
• 🇲🇱 Bamako: OpenStreetMap Bamako Decentralized Mapping Two low-cost flood tools: Bamako mapped flood-prone drains with volunteers (2020-22); Tegucigalpa wired laser river sensors in 2024.
