Natural disasters and calamities throw up major challenges for national governments in many countries of the Asia-Pacific region. Earthquakes, floods, cyclones, epidemics, tsunamis, and landslides have become of common occurrence in the region, repeatedly taking a heavy toll of life and property. In such serious disaster situations, the major challenge for authorities is the protection of life (human and animal), property, and the vital life-supporting infrastructure necessary for disaster mitigation. Any delay or laxity in disaster relief could escalate the magnitude of distress for the victims. Advanced disaster management technology could provide a critical support system for disaster management authorities at times of disaster-related crises. Such a technology also provides important inputs for any disaster management plan of action in modern times.
