Navigating towards safety
The problem First Response: A project by Data Detectives solves
In natural disasters, locating and rescuing individuals in hard-to-reach or high-risk areas is challenging.
Current rescue efforts are hindered by limited visibility, hazardous conditions, and resource constraints.
Challenges we ran into
Lack of Rescue Drone Footage:
Difficulty arose due to the absence of sufficient drone footage capturing disaster scenes, hindering the training and validation of our AI models.
Insufficient Images for Normal and Wounded Classification:
Obtaining an adequate number of images for training the classification models posed a challenge, particularly in distinguishing between normal individuals and those wounded in disaster scenarios.
Limited Availability of Drones or Suitable Images:
The project faced setbacks due to the scarcity of drones or suitable images depicting disaster-stricken areas, impacting our ability to gather diverse and representative data for model development.
Time Constraints:
Time constraints posed challenges in terms of model development, validation, and refinement, as well as in the overall project timeline for completion.
Resource Constraints for Model Training:
Resource limitations, including computing power and data annotation resources, constrained the training of the three AI models essential for object detection, classification, and tracking.
