    MINI PROPOSAL 3

    NATURAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT MOBILE APP

    BACKGROUND STUDY:

    Natural disasters are catastrophic events that occur due to natural phenomena and can have
    significant and long-lasting impacts on human life, property, and the environment. Their
    frequency and severity have increased in recent years due to climate change, environmental
    degradation, and urbanization. To mitigate the impact of natural disasters, various
    organizations and agencies work together to develop disaster risk reduction strategies,
    emergency preparedness plans, and response mechanisms. Overall, a coordinated and multi-
    sectoral approach is required to reduce the impact of natural disasters on human life and the
    environment.

    PROBLEM STATEMENT:

    The existing disaster management systems rely on data from various sources, including
    satellite imagery, weather forecasts, etc. Those data will then be channel through mass media
    and social media. However, the accuracy and reliability of this data are limited, and the rapid
    change on the weather conditions may affecting weather patterns and making it more difficult
    to accurately predict future weather conditions.. Moreover, the lack of community
    engagement and participation in this dire situation often leads to ineffective communication
    and inadequate response to emergencies. There is a need for a more efficient and cost-
    effective approach to natural disaster management that involves community participation and
    engagement.

    PROJECT AIM:

    The aim of a natural disaster management mobile app is to develop a user-friendly and
    accessible mobile application that provides individuals and communities with essential
    information and tools to prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters. The app
    act as the disaster alert that publicize either potential natural disaster through forecast or
    sharing real-time disaster from the crowd. The mobile app also suggesting the right solution to
    handle those disaster.

    EXPECTED OUTPUT:

    The expected output of the natural disaster management mobile app includes:

     User-friendly and accessible mobile application: The project aims to deliver a mobile app
    that is easy to use, intuitive, and accessible to all individuals and communities, regardless
    of their technical skills or level of literacy.

     Disaster preparedness information and tools: The mobile app should provide users with
    information and tools to prepare for natural disasters, including emergency planning
    checklists, evacuation procedures, and access to emergency supplies.

     Real-time disaster updates and alerts: The mobile app should provide real-time updates
    on the location, severity, and progression of natural disasters, as well as alerts and
    notifications on emergency response efforts and the availability of resources.

     Disaster recovery information and resources: The mobile app should provide users with
    information and resources to assist with recovery efforts, including information on
    available resources and services, assistance with applying for government aid, and
    counseling services.

    TARGET USER:

    The target users for the natural disaster management mobile app are individuals and
    communities at risk of natural disasters, including residents of disaster-prone areas,
    emergency responders and officials, travelers and tourists, and government agencies and
    NGOs.

    MARKET VALUE:
    The proposed mobile app has significant market potential in disaster-prone regions worldwide.
    Natural catastrophes are on the rise, technology is advancing, and there is a growing demand
    for integrated disaster management solutions. Globally, it is anticipated that the demand for
    planning and response to natural disasters will only grow, creating potential for disaster
    management mobile applications to expand their user bases.
