The Challenge | From Curious Minds Come Helping Hands

Your challenge is to design and build an innovative platform to integrate satellite data and information about vulnerable populations and environmental hazards in order to identify the most at-risk populations. Be creative and think outside the box. How will you identify those people that are often missed, but need aid the most?

EQ Saver, Predicting earthquake by machine learning

Our project name is EQ-Saver & its main theme is to collect ground movement data and compare it with the data provided by NASA. Using Machine learni to predicting the next big earthquake disaster and we will be able to take steps to minimize the loss.

EQ

Background:

Earthquake is a natural disaster. Earthquakes are usually caused when underground rocks suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake.During the earthquake and afterward, the plates or blocks of rock start moving, and they continue to move until they get stuck again. The spot underground where the rock breaks is called the focus of the earthquake. The place right above the focus (on top of the ground) is called the epicenter of the earthquake.

The main focus of our project is to collect the tectonic plate movement data and compare it to the existing data from NASA. We are using an accelerometer to measure the ground movement in x, y, z, axis. This will be place in different area. When any movement occurs that will be recorded and send to an online data server . The app will keep a record. Also, by using machine learning to predict earthquake on a particular area . Like after collecting 3 months of data we can observe the situation of the tectonic plate and compare it to past 5 years data from NASA. This will give a clear prediction of any earthquake near future. The prediction will be more accurate as the machine learning algorithm continues to find the best possible outcomes. This will let people to take early precaution for any upcoming disaster related to earthquake. In the future we will be developing this project to use not only for our earth but also far beyond other planets as we are already planning to build habitation on mars to ensure human safety. This project is cost effective too. "A $10 solution to save many lives".
