Emergency Information System Architecture for Disaster Management: Metro City Perspective

Neeraj Kumar, Ratish Agrawal · International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer Science · 2017

During the disaster, communication is a tedious job through wired networks, so Wireless Sensor Network and Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) has been chosen to make a novel design. WSNs are event-driven networks useful in an emergency, where human can’t monitor properly. Within the range, proposed hybrid Adhoc Network will be able to communicate across the obstacle without the help of any fixed infrastructure as well as it will be able to communicate through the social media. This is a costly network due the use of smartphones within it, but high cost of technology is a one time investment only. This paper investigates the technologies to help in disaster management, and showing the problem in different scenarios. This paper also presents an architecture with method of communication helpful on and network model for the IS for natural disaster.
