Web services based path guidance to rescue team alert system during flood

摘要

In order to save the lives and infrastructure of a flood affected area, identification of the area and rescue team is needed. Along with a trained rescue team a quick and relevant intimation system is also needed so that the rescue operation can be carried out quickly. In this study, we propose a web based Rescue Alert System (RAS). RAS collects data from different locations of the affected site and analyses the data to detect the disastrous situation. After knowing the location of affected area, the RAS finds out shortest path from affected area to the current position of rescue team and provides the path to the rescue team. we design, DataAnalyzer, PathFinder, and PathValidator web services; the orchestration of the services is carried out using java based OpenESB framework.
