  • Summary

  • Severe Storms. Wildfires. Floods. According to Statista, there were 421 natural disaster events recorded worldwide in 2022. Among the most damaging are tropical cyclones, what the World Health Organization would refer to as typhoons or hurricanes. As damaging as the wind can be, the greatest damage to life and property is not from the wind, but from secondary events such as storm surges, flooding, landslides, and tornadoes.

    To combat and prepare for these events, world leaders and local governments try to anticipate early warning signs in advance of the event using satellite, radar, and other advanced technologies. Despite their best efforts, these disasters happen. When they do, communities are affected, and the damage can be extensive. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in the United States, 2023 was the most expensive year on record for billion-dollar climate disasters.

    What are these towns and municipalities to do? This is where Smart Cities come in.

    How could Microchip Technology help bring Smart Cities to life?
