Integrated Decision Support System for Flood Disaster Management with Sustainable Implementation

Abstract

Emergency management of a flood catastrophe should involve not only an immediate reaction to the flooding but also the pre-flood disaster phase, the flood disaster phase, and the post-flood disaster phase. This is in addition to the immediate response to the flooding. This research investigates whether or not a decision support system (DSS) for flood emergency management is necessary and whether or not it is feasible. Previously, we presented a model for the development of modular disaster management decision support systems. The prior work that we did on the integration of DSS model decomposition-derived modular subroutines is expanded upon in this research. The act of merging many models into a single comprehensive logical model is referred to as “Observed and Forecasted.” After that, it offers a systematic framework for handling crises throughout the whole of the process, and it concludes with an in-depth analysis of the function architecture of each application subsystem. In this work, we create a disaster management metamodel with the goal of eventually building a disaster management (DM) language. It will function as a representational layer of DM data that, over time, will create a system for DM decision support that mixes and matches various DM actions in line with the evolution of the disaster as it develops. A decision support system that will contain an innovative metamodel as a core component will be developed in order to accomplish the aims of integrating, enabling, and accelerating access to DM information. These objectives will be reached via the creation of a decision support system.
