Animal Attack

In recent years the whole world witnessed several natural and manmade disasters. 2015 Earthquake in Nepal and India with 7.8 magnitudes which killed 9000 people and injured 22000 as per Government Records. 2018 Flood in North Korea left 10,700 people as per the report of International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC) and Wikipedia. Floods in India 2018, killed more than 300 in the state of Kerala. 2016, Forest fire in Uttarakhand, India burnt 10,000 acres of Forest area. In between April 2014 – May 2017, 1,144 people killed by wild animals as per the report of Indian Environment Ministry (IEM). All the reports stated above represents indications that regardless of several advancements and technical skill development to disaster management is not considered efficiently worldwide. There are plenty of disasters which could be taken care of much efficiently and wisely. If we see the disasters like flood, fire and animal attack we can easily notice that they are manageable to much extent with expert technical advancements. Our paper is about the disaster management of the tribrid series (Flood, Fire, Wild Animal Attack) with the eminent usage of technology. We create a flood sensing unit, a fire detection unit, and a wild animal detection unit with the help of sensors and we create the alert and remedial action unit to protect the common men from sub disasters. We use Embedded and IOT technologies together to provide worldwide coverage and accurate detection of the calamities.

Use Of Social Media

BackgroundSocial media (SM) are forms of information and communication technology disseminated through social interaction. SM rely upon peer-to-peer (P2P) networks that are collaborative, decentralized, and community-driven transforming people from content consumers into content producers. The role of SM in disaster management galvanized during the world response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. (Pew 2010) During the immediate aftermath, much of what people around the world were learning about the earthquake originated from SM sources. (Nielsenwire 2010) During the first 2 weeks following the earthquake, “texting” mobile phone users donated over $25 million to the American Red Cross. (Sysomos 2010) Both public and private response agencies used Google Maps™. Millions joined MySpace™ and Facebook ™discussion groups to share information, donate money, and offer support. SM has also been described as “remarkably well organized, self correcting, accurate and concentrated”, calling into question the ingrained view of unidirectional, official-to-public information broadcasts. (Sutton, et al 2008) SM may also offer potential psychological benefit for vulnerable populations gained through participation as stakeholders in the response. (Sutton, et al 2008) (Laor 2003)DiscussionHowever, widespread use of SM also involves several important challenges for disaster management. Although SM is growing rapidly, it remains less widespread and accessible than traditional media. Also, public officials often view person to person communications as “backchannels” with potential to spread misinformation and rumor. (Akre 2010) In addition, in absence of the normal checks and balances that regulate traditional media, privacy rights violations can occur as people use SM to describe personal events and circumstances.

Animal Attack

Crop damage due to the animal attack is one among the the principle dangers in diminishing the crop yield. The farm areas near the forest edges are unmistakably suffering from the wild animal attacks.. This surveys various methods used in many application for crop Security to redirect animal interruptions in the crop field. Most of these models in the crop field are outfitted with PIR sensors, sound creating gadgets, light flashers and some equipment module. For early discovery of the animal at the edge of the ranch interruption location framework should be introduced. Animal section at the homestead limit can be distinguished by certain hubs fixed at the limit and can be imparted to the focal base station. The progression of the center point commencement is zone based, time based and closeness based. On accepting this data the hubs inside the region of the animal actuates the hindering devices and diverts the animal far away from the area.

To Come

I have been invited, in 1971, at the time of my retirement, to write an article to the International Review. It has taken over two years to gain sufficient perspective to carry out the assignment; for the thousands of incidents to settle into highlights of experiences in that capacity. I, at first, thought that I had to sort out my activities during the period as a full-time Red Cross nurse and the events which occurred when acting as an officer of my professional organization, the Canadian Nurses' Association. It was only when I recognized, in retrospect, that the two were irretrievably interwoven that I could begin to outline the tapestry of my life during those years. It was the common purpose of the two roles that made the time so fulfilling. To paraphrase the words of a Roman philosopher, “So far as I am an individual, my country is Canada; so far as I am a Red Cross nurse, I am a citizen of the world”. The International Red Cross mapped the road I was to travel as well as serving as a backdrop to all that was to come.
