Usages of AI Technologies in Nepal’s Disaster Management

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays vital role in disaster management. AI not only can save lives of people during an emergency, it can help government to formulate strategies for increased safety and resiliency before a disaster strikes. In this paper the benefits of AI technologies in disaster response focusing to Nepal have been explored. This paper further discusses the role of AI technologies such as robotics, ontology and semantic web, and multi-agent systems in crisis response. AI is behind many of the recent advances in technologies for crisis response and management.
