Digital Twin Based Disaster Management System Proposal: DT-DMS

Year 2021, Volume: 1 Issue: 2, 25 - 30, 31.12.2021

Abstract

The damage and the impact of natural disasters are becoming more destructive with the increase of urbanization. Today's metropolitan cities are not sufficiently prepared for the pre and post-disaster situations. Digital Twin technology can provide a solution. A virtual copy of the physical city could be created by collecting data from sensors of the Internet of Things (IoT) devices and stored on the cloud infrastructure. This virtual copy is kept current and up to date with the continuous flow of the data coming from the sensors. We propose a disaster management system utilising machine learning called DT-DMS is used to support decision-making mechanisms. This study aims to show how to educate and prepare emergency centre staff by simulating potential disaster situations on the virtual copy. The event of a disaster will be simulated allowing emergency centre staff to make decisions and depicting the potential outcomes of these decisions. A rescue operation after an earthquake is simulated. Test results are promising and simulation scope is planned to be extended.
