Abstract

Innovative solutions are necessary for efficient monitoring and mitigation techniques as climate change increases the frequency and severity of natural catastrophes. In this study, we investigate how Cloud Internet of Things (IoT) might help mitigate climate-related calamities. Through the use of cloud computing and sensor networks, Cloud IoT facilitates the capture, processing, and distribution of data in near-real time. This strategy promotes catastrophe planning, response, and recovery by offering early warnings, predictive insights, and simplified communication. The article emphasises the cumulative influence of Cloud IoT components such as sensor networks, data analytics, decision support systems, and remote control in the context of disaster management. Cloud IoT is useful in real-world scenarios, such as the tracking of floods in Bangladesh and the identification of wildfires in California. These cases show how the technology may prevent injuries and preserve property through early warnings and well-coordinated responses. Despite its potential, it faces obstacles including ensuring the safety of data and dealing with issues related to the necessary infrastructure. In conclusion, including Cloud IoT in disaster management provides a cost-effective, scalable, and efficient solution, greatly contributing to constructing resilient communities and creating a sustainable future in the face of climate-induced natural catastrophes.
