Approximately 160 million people annually bear the brunt of these disasters, with certain regions facing disproportionate impacts. The lack of predictability intensifies the challenge, creating intercommunal capacity gaps and amplifying the dire consequences. Utilizing AI and Machine Learning for Natural Disaster Management provides instances of ML in predicting earthquakes. By leveraging seismic data, AI systems can analyze magnitude and patterns, providing invaluable insights to forecast earthquake occurrences and aftershocks. Similarly, the book unveils the potential of ML in simulating floods by recording and analyzing rainfall patterns from previous years. The predictive power extends to hurricanes, where data on wind speed, rainfall, temperature, and moisture converge to anticipate future occurrences, potentially saving millions in property damage.
