Abstract

In times of natural and industrial disasters, quick detection and reliable communication are essential to minimize

damage and save lives. The proposed LoRa and IoT-based Automatic Disaster Monitoring and Alert System provides an

efficient, low-cost, and long-range solution for real-time disaster management. The system integrates various sensors to monitor

parameters such as earthquake vibrations, gas leaks, flood levels, temperature, humidity, and human occupancy. Sensor data is

collected by a NodeMCU (ESP8266) and transmitted through LoRa communication to a base station for further processing and

cloud upload via platforms like ThingSpeak or Ubidots.

In critical conditions, the system triggers automatic alerts through GSM modules (SMS/calls) and local alarms, ensuring

communication even during internet failures. Additional features such as automatic door control and people counting enhance

safety and assist rescue operations. The system operates efficiently with low power consumption and solar backup, making it

suitable for remote and disaster-prone areas.

This project demonstrates a scalable, energy-efficient, and internet-independent approach to disaster monitoring, offering early

warnings, reliable alerts, and enhanced safety for communities, industries, and public infrastructures.
