ABSTRACT
This research paper explores RescueNet, a web-based application designed to enhance disaster management through real-time geospatial technology. RescueNet leverages geofencing to streamline emergency response, optimize resource allocation, and facilitate efficient coordination in both pre- and post-disaster scenarios. This study examines its key features, including its robust architecture, user-friendly interface, and ability to improve disaster preparedness and recovery efforts. By systematically reviewing related works and iterative development processes, this research highlights current challenges and opportunities in geofencing-based disaster management systems. RescueNet enables real-time alerts, situational awareness, and automated emergency task assignments, minimizing response time and maximizing efficiency in crisis situations. The system ensures accurate and timely notifications without requiring manual input, allowing responders and affected individuals to take prompt action. Additionally, this paper discusses system scalability, data privacy considerations, and future advancements for enhancing RescueNet’s impact in disaster resilience. Overall, RescueNet represents a significant step toward smarter, technology-driven disaster management, ensuring faster and more effective responses in an increasingly unpredictable world.
