Leveraging AI for Natural Disaster Management : Takeaways From The Moroccan Earthquake
Abstract
The devastating 6.8-magnitude earthquake in Al Haouz, Morocco in 2023 prompted critical reflections on global disaster management strategies, resulting in a post-disaster hackathon, using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. This paper provides (i) a comprehensive literature review, (ii) an overview of winning projects, (iii) key insights and challenges, namely real-time open-source data, data scarcity, and interdisciplinary collaboration barriers, and (iv) a community-call for further action.
