After last year’s torrential rains, typhoons, and repeated earthquakes exposed how fragile mountain regions can be, Taiwan is moving fast as the May flood-prevention season begins. The Executive Yuan recently convened the Central Disaster Prevention and Response meeting, focusing on three big priorities: flood-preparedness readiness, AI disaster-prevention applications, and the integration of spatial intelligence. Deputy Premier Cheng Li-jen stressed that disaster patterns are getting more complex—so the government needs to accelerate AI and digital technology to build a more resilient disaster-management system. A key action: launching an “AI Disaster Prevention” project task force under the Central Disaster Prevention Committee. It will coordinate across ministries, aligning AI work with national development programs and boosting execution speed. Plans also include embedding AI into the next Disaster Prevention Basic Plan for 2029–2033, targeting decision support, resource/logistics coordination, more effective public warning communication, and stronger protection for vulnerable groups. The AI core is data integration—connecting meteorology, hydrology, geology, transportation, communications, and more. Expect faster alerts, better decisions, and stronger coordination between central, local, and private partners. #DisasterResponse #AI #FloodPrevention #SpatialIntelligence #Resilience #PublicSafety
