The dragonfly symbolises the carriage of the wisdom of transformation and adaptability in life. The Dragonfly’s scurrying flight across water represents an act of going beyond what’s on the surface and looking into the deeper implications and aspects of life.
This project uses nature inspired computing to process satellite data and determine an early warning of developing situations before they become disasters. By modelling the swarming patterns of insects with artificially intelligent processing, natural and man-made situations can be identified and treated quickly and efficiently. Response to emerging disaster is treated autonomously by dispatch of highly tragetted drone vehicles which can treat a disaster zone accurately and efficiently.
The solution presented here is highly adaptable to multiple satellite observable disaster modes including...
Tropical disease
Illegal deforestation
Illegal fishing
Wild fire
Famine
Oil Spill
Earthquake/Tsunami
