Abstract

Pakistan's floods have devastated the country for decades. Climate change impacts many nations, especially South Asian countries bordered by glaciers and the Himalayas. Because of climate change, these reservoirs are melting quickly and creating massive floods that affect millions. The rise of water-based diseases, including diarrhea, dengue fever, and malaria, burdens healthcare systems. Flood-affected communities lack period-hygiene products and maternity care for many pregnant women. The study used past flood statistics to find a drone-based way to distribute health supplies to flood-affected communities quickly. This chapter outlines a knowledge-based architecture for flood-relief, an intelligent drone management system for large-scale flood relief and rescue operations. Drones cut first aid delivery time and might be used for flood assistance in the future.
