Rescue Bee

High-Level Project Summary

Quick Response and Rescue System based on NASA Earth API and drones

Detailed Project Description

Motivation

  1. When disaster occurs, aside from the danger caused, push and trample among the crowd result in casualties as well. Therefore, the dynamic evacuation is necessary.
  2. With mobility of drones and area data offered by satellites, our team intend to achieve the goal of sdgs 11.3, hoping to improve living safety through the dynamic evacuation plan.


How does our project works?

  1. When a disaster happens, our system can minimize casualties.
  2. After people send rescue signals, we will fetch data from NASA satellites API.
  3. In the meantime, we will deploy drones and plan evacuation routes by analyzing images we just fetch.
  4. Our drones will guide people to the safest location and wait for authorized personnel to pick them up.


Project


Main idea






  1. We can get the location and what type of disaster from our users.
  2. We use drones to analyze and also use “NASA Earth API” as support for our project.
  3. Guide people to the safest place and wait for authorized personnel by our app and drones.


Technique


SLAM : updating a map of an unknown environment

NASA Earth API : fetch area data
