Beschreibungen

<p>This&nbsp;book provides the details of developing a digital pedestrian map construction system over the&nbsp;intermittently connected mobile network. Over the past couple of decades, countries across the world, both developing and developed, have&nbsp;witnessed a significant number of disasters. Thus, it has become mandatory for each of the disaster-prone&nbsp;countries to equip themselves with appropriate measures to cope with the challenges of providing post-disaster services. Some of the serious challenges are incapacitated communication infrastructure, unstable&nbsp;power supply and inaccessible road networks. Out of these challenges, the destruction of road networks,&nbsp;especially in developing countries, acts as a major hindrance to effective disaster management. To be more&nbsp;specific, the success of a disaster response operation generally depends on the speed of evacuation and&nbsp;transportation of adequate amount of relief materials at the right time to the disaster-affected areas.&nbsp;Hence, map-based navigation support is a primary requirement for post-disaster relief operations. This book also provides the solution of the two other&nbsp;important post-disaster management services such as situational awareness and resource allocation. Both&nbsp;of these services are invariably dependent on the existence of navigation support. Finally, in order to offer&nbsp;such services, the other challenge is to address the problem of incapacitated communication&nbsp;infrastructure. This book also deals with such challenges in post-disaster scenarios and develops&nbsp;automated post-disaster management services.</p>
