Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing a data analytics index associated with a crisis-recovery data analytics engine in a data analytics system. The data analytics index is a consolidated single index representation of a set of variables associated with a set of consumer behaviors. The crisis-recovery data analytics engine supports generating the data analytics index associated with a pre-crisis period and a crisis-recovery period. In operation, a crisis-recovery dataset—associated with a set of variables of a set of consumer behaviors that support quantifying recovery from a crisis event—is accessed. The set of consumer behaviors are selected based on a crisis-recovery machine learning model that is trained on a pre-crisis dataset and a crisis dataset for selecting the set of consumer behaviors. A data analytics index is generated based on the crisis-recovery dataset. A data visualization comprising crisis-recovery data indicating recovery from the crisis event is generated.
