🌍 ResQNet

📌 Overview

The Disaster Management System is a web-based platform that provides real-time disaster response, resource tracking, and emergency communication tools. The system is designed to help affected individuals, government agencies, and NGOs coordinate relief efforts effectively.

🚨 Why This Project?

Most disaster-related deaths do not occur during the disaster itself but after the disaster due to the following issues:

1️⃣ Lack of People Tracking

• Authorities cannot locate affected individuals.
• There is a gap between the reported number of people and the actual count of affected individuals.
• Survivors struggle to find safe evacuation routes to shelters.

2️⃣ Limited Resource Awareness

• People in safe locations do not know where to find food, medical aid, and emergency services.
• Critical resources such as water, medical kits, and rescue teams are not easily accessible.

3️⃣ Inefficient Communication During Crisis

• Authorities fail to broadcast warnings to remote areas.
• No centralized platform for sharing verified updates and emergency instructions.
• Victims cannot reach out for help due to network failures.

4️⃣ Slow Response Time for Rescuers

• First responders do not have real-time data on the most affected areas.
• Delays in dispatching rescue teams and sending medical aid.
• Lack of automated SOS detection based on social media or mobile data.
