Project Name : Use of Geo-Stationary Satellites in Disaster Management
Theme Name : Disaster Management
The geo-stationary satellite through its radiometers monitors weather systems roam around the world. However, weather changes quickly and the weather report turns out to be outdated, so, our model deals with real – time management to calculate weather conditions within a short period of time especially in case of disasters like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc. using geo-stationary satellites alone.
For quick calculation of weather parameters like temperature, pressure, humidity floats, weather ships and automated weather system (AWS) can be used and the software turbain can be used to process the data on board in the satellite. Further information about the disaster can be sent to the mobile tower, radio tower, and village sarpanchs and on the screens placed on the traffic signals for people to mitigate the disasters themselves. The research done by us with regard to earthquake reveals that prior to an earthquake, electromagnetic radiations, infra-red radiations and even ozone-gas formation can be detected by the geo-stationery satellites and in future can be used to issue warnings quickly.
A talk with the senior scientists of the Regional Remote sensing center and the geological survey of India further enhanced our knowledge on the working of geo-stationary satellites.
