Abstract
Disasters, whether natural or human-made, inflict widespread devastation and threaten lives, infrastructure, and the environment. The internet of things (IoT) has transformed disaster detection and environmental monitoring. IoT systems, leveraging strategically placed sensors, offer real-time data on various environmental factors, serving as early warning systems. Deploying sensors in urban, industrial, and natural settings, the system continuously monitors air quality, temperature, humidity, rainfall, and wind speed. Equipped with GPS modules, these nodes provide valuable geospatial context, enhancing data precision. This platform enables real-time data processing, analysis, and visualization, with remote access for stakeholders. Employing machine learning algorithms, the system predicts disasters based on crucial environmental parameters, This IoT-based system enhances environmental sustainability, predicts disasters, improves public health, and informs policy decisions, showcasing the pivotal role of IoT in addressing contemporary environmental challenges.
