Description:
|
In today’s day and age when “data is gold”, world is witnessing a revolutionary shift towards data-driven research and decision-making. Enormous new sources of data have emerged in the domain of disaster-related research which can potentially revolutionize the way we deal with disaster impacts and how we recover from them. However, despite abundance of useful data and multitude of potential sources of information, we are not able to utilize most of it in a coherent and systematic manner to inform the damage assessment models and subsequent decision-making. Therefore, the idea is to strategically map the data coming form different sources and predict or assess the impacts of the disaster. The project aims to develop a framework that can map information from different data sources and result in an automated model for post-disaster damage assessment and reliable decision-making model. |
