The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for accurately, flexibly, and efficiently broadcasting public combined live video streams from multiple participant devices, which change over the course of the live broadcast, as well as generating dynamic user interfaces that streamline adding, removing, and swapping participant devices from the public combined live video stream. In particular, a live video streaming system facilitates compositing live video streams from multiple participant devices into a public combined live video stream within a digital room before broadcasting the public combined live video stream to viewer devices. In addition, the live video stream smoothly and efficiently transitions new participant devices from a digital waiting room to the public combined live video stream as well as switches current participant devices from the public combined live video stream to a digital waiting room, all while maintaining live video stream of the participant devices.

An online system maintains various labels identifying physical locations, allowing users to identify a physical location to the online system by specifying the label identifying the physical location. When a user does not identify a label corresponding to location coordinates provided to the online system by a client device, the online system selects a maintained label and prompts the user to indicate whether the user visited the physical location identified by the selected label. To select the label, the online system accounts for likelihoods of the received location coordinates being identified by various labels and values of the online system of identifying whether different labels identify received location coordinates. The online system may also account for other prompts presented to the user or to other users when determining whether to prompt the user to indicate whether the user visited the physical location identified by the selected label.

Determining correlations between locations associated with a label and physical locations based on information received from users providing physical locations to an online system

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can determine a geographical area associated with a crisis. A first user within the geographical area can be identified based on locational data associated with the first user. Information about a safety status of the first user can be actively requested or acquired from the first user. The safety status of the first user can be broadcasted, communicated, or provided to at least a second user associated with the first user.
