PostDisaster optimizes disaster management through AI-powered satellite image analysis, drone-based 3D reconstructions, and MR tools for damage assessment. These technologies enable faster and more precise impact evaluation as well as more efficient planning of relief measures.
With the increasing frequency of environmental disasters, the need for innovative solutions to rapidly assess and manage damages has become evident. PostDisaster addresses these gaps by integrating cutting-edge technologies across satellite, aerial, and ground levels.
AI analyzes satellite images to identify affected areas, while drones create 3D models for detailed damage assessments. On-site, MR tools support infrastructure inspections. These technologies improve decision-making and enhance the safety of emergency responders.
PostDisaster strengthens community resilience, minimizes risks, and drives innovation in disaster management—making a significant contribution to long-term crisis preparedness.
