Blockchain Applications in Disaster Management Systems

This project presents a novel blockchain-based disaster management system designed to streamline and optimize the response process to natural disasters. The system’s front-end is built using React, while its back-end runs on Flask. It enables different stakeholders, including aid organizations, government agencies, and relief workers, to access different parts of the system, enhancing collaboration, and increasing efficiency. The system comprises four main categories: missing people log, aid package distribution, critical areas, and refugee-relief camp mapping, each having multiple modules. The blockchain-based system allows for secure and immutable record-keeping of all critical data, enhancing transparency, accountability, and trust. Smart contracts are utilized to automate various aspects disaster management, enabling the rapid and efficient delivery of aid packages to affected areas. The decentralized nature blockchain allows for the efficient coordination of resources and effective management of aid distribution, reducing waste and ensuring that resources are delivered to those in need. The system’s unique features, such as tamper-proof data storage, automated processes, and decentralized coordination, provide an innovative solution to the challenges faced in disaster management and relief efforts.
