Abstract Abstract:<br/>There are a lot of lives and financial losses due to the late detection of natural disaster occurrence and lack of prediction accuracy. This research work has demonstrated that through the use of the Internet of Things (IoT), natural disaster detection could be done with higher accuracy and at much earlier time than the current processes. These improvements would enhance the authorities’ ability to mobilize their resources to save lives and properties in a timely fashion.<br/>This research work focused on hurricanes and tropical storms type disasters. Classifications of hurricane categories are made based on the wind speed, using Saffir Simpson scale. Wind speed data gathered from already planted sensors around the USA, and for that matter around the world, is fed to a developed “Software Solution”. The developed software solution manipulates the data and displays any abnormal status on a dashboard provided to the authorized operator.<br/>The dashboard shows a map for the detected abnormal status(s) location(s), the counts of impacted cities and areas, and summarized information regarding the abnormal status(s). The software solution developed, has also a feature that provides basic prediction using different types of regressions such as linear and quadratic.<br/>In order to validate the effectiveness of the developed software solution for early detection, a simulator was developed that used the collected sensors’ readings from many locations that suffered from some hurricanes such as Dorian (2019), Michael (2018), and Florence (2018). The simulator sends the sensors’ readings periodically as if it is happening at runtime. The developed software solution was able to detect abnormal status for Dorian, Michael, and Florence hurricanes in many states in the USA by several hours up to 21 hours earlier than the current processes.
