Disaster Debris Detection and Management System using WSN & IoT

Disasters like earthquake, landslide, flood etc. typically generate enormous amount of debris in the disaster struck area. As a result of these disasters, there will be destruction of properties like home, public infrastructure which results in insecurity, loss of life and property and also interrupts public services. Wireless Sensor Networks play a vital role in disaster debris detection and management. Debris flows usually occurs in mountain regions having steep front. They comprise a huge congregation of solid matter like mud, soil are other waste generated due to earthquake, landslide etc. in water that flows down in the form of a wave. Landslides, earthquake and floods generate debris. They are amongst the foremost vulnerable natural disasters in mountainous torrents. Different factors are attributable to quality of debris flow: firstly their potentiality of transportation and deposition of enormous quantity of solid matters, which can additionally approach gigantic sizes, their sheer fronts, can attain huge meters of altitude and additionally their high speeds and depth of flow. To mitigate the effects of debris, a disaster debris management system is designed containing an different sensors, Nmote and an N-gateway to measure various parameters of debris flow and an alert is sent to the public and rescue team by using cloud services in advance so that there is less loss of life and property.
