Natural Disaster Impact Assessment Using Genetic Algorithm

Earthquake Impact Assessment using Genetic Algorithm’ aims atestimating the damage caused by an Earthquake. When the epicenter is specified, the application estimates the casualties and the type of infrastructure damaged. For Tsunami, the application calculates the tsunami arrival time and lists the tsunami characteristics. There is no system yet that predicts Earthquake damage based on Genetic algorithm. However there are several systems that use the ground vibrations and seismic data to predict the earthquake which has proven inadequate in more occasions than one. Although predicting an earthquake might be out of scope for us, but in this endeavor we can make software, which estimates the damages the earthquake causes and help the authorities concerned to take the appropriate mitigation measures.
