Abstract: Each country has a natural disaster, but catastrophe losses can’t be avoided. The loss of human life, damage to the environment, infrastructure degradation, etc. Which in turn affects the country’s development facing the disaster’s wrath? In this analysis, we discuss the various methods available in the literature to reduce the losses in flood-related natural disasters. There are four major steps in the prevention of disaster losses, including preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation. Existing methods that address the above steps and all the current methods have certain limitations and are therefore not all sufficient to minimize losses due to flooding. In order to overcome all the deficiencies in the exit method, we propose an IoT devices based algorithm to get the number of victims and survivors due to flood and reduce the flood losses model using social networking sites.
