摘要

The natural disasters experienced by south Asian region are water-related either through excess water or a lack of it namely typhoons and cyclones, flooding, storm surges, tsunamis, drought and desertification. We are presently positioned at the 21st century with the fast growing trends in computer technology, information systems and virtual world to obtain data about the physical and cultural worlds, and to use these data to do research or to solve practical problems. The current digital and analog electronic devices facilitate the inventory and management of resources through rapid execution of arithmetic or logical operations. The Geo-informatics; GIS, remote sensing and GPS are undergoing much improvement and they are able to create, manipulate, store and analyze spatial data much faster and at rapid rate as compared to conventional methods. Remote sensing provide the synoptic observations by meteorological satellites of regional cloud patterns, precipitation distribution and other climatological and atmospheric parameters, as well as soil moisture-vegetation indices, in near real time from geosynchronous and polar orbiting satellites, have become important elements in disaster warning, damage assessment and mitigation. To identify the draw backs of traditional disaster management process and the potentials of modern technology in disaster management and to prepare the plans for the study area for future development is the prime objectives of the study.
