After an event like a hurricane, tornado, earthquake or wildfire, communities need help to cover the cost of debris removal, life-saving emergency protective measures and restoring public infrastructure.
The recently passed American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 allocates $50 billion for the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Disaster Relief Fund to help state, local, tribal and territorial governments respond to and recover from major disasters or emergencies.
As cities look at ways to address the planet’s most significant challenges, from natural disasters to hunger and even sustainability, they need to invest in Internet of Things solutions embedded with advanced analytics to better prepare for and react to these incidents.
With connected sensors and long-range, low-power IoT technology that leverages artificial intelligence and streaming analytics, cities can implement end-to-end solutions that enable businesses and organizations to adopt new models for IT, edge analytics and platform-based security, and in turn, harness real-time data and advanced analytics to deliver meaningful results. The combination of IoT-enabled analytics, devices and networks will accelerate intelligent decisioning and improve overall response time in the event a natural disaster does occur.
