India’s disaster-prone regions face recurring hazards such as landslides,floods, coastal erosion, and cloudbursts. Vulnerable habitations often remain in unsafe zones, leading to repeated loss of lives and property.Current relocation efforts are largely reactive, initiated after disasters strike, rather than proactively planned. •
The initiative seeks to develop an intelligent, GIS-enabled decision support system.

The initiative seeks to develop an intelligent, GIS-enabled decision support system. This system will dynamically identify and update multi-hazard Red Zones (areas unsuitable for permanent habitation),assess the carrying capacity of safer alternative sites, and prioritize vulnerable habitations for relocation. The system will integrate hazard intensity, population vulnerability, and disaster history to guide evidence-based decisions. •
