Abstract- The rising number of natural and man-made disasters has driven home the necessity of utilizing sophisticated technologies in incident response and public safety operations. Artificial Intelligence (AI), with its data processing capabilities, ability to learn, and real-time analytics, has been a revolutionary driving force in creating smart incident response systems. These AI-powered systems provide noteworthy benefits in identification, forecasting, and reaction to emergency events at better speed and accuracy than classical methods. These systems allow public safety organizations to analyze large volumes of diverse datasets—ranging from sensor feed and surveillance images to social media and emergency dispatch calls—in near real-time and offer situational awareness and actionable intelligence during crises.
This paper provides an in-depth analysis of AI-based incident response systems in public safety crisis management. It explores the technologies, data sources, and algorithms behind contemporary systems as well as the implementation issues including ethical issues, data privacy, infrastructure constraints, and algorithmic bias. Through an exhaustive review of literature, method analysis, and examination of recent cases, this research recognizes the advantages, challenges, and opportunities brought about by AI in emergency response. By providing an overview of the present status and future possibilities of such technologies, the paper hopes to contribute to the development of resilient, smart, and ethically sound public safety infrastructures capable of evolving to accommodate changing threats and social demands.
