An autonomous, IoT-based Disaster Management & Safety System fully simulated and configured within Cisco Packet Tracer. This project demonstrates how interconnected smart sensors can detect critical environmental hazards (such as fire, smoke, high water levels, or unauthorized motion) and instantly trigger automated fail-safe alert actuators to minimize response delay.
- Purpose: To showcase an automated IoT network capable of early hazard detection and quick emergency response without manual human intervention.
- Real-time Monitoring: Continuous polling of environmental parameters via multi-sensor tracking zones.
- Low-latency Automation: Direct programmatic communication between sensors and actuators through a centralized gateway to ensure immediate public safety warnings.
This is the complete star-topology framework designed inside the simulation, showing wireless and wired links bridging the sensors back to the core tracking controller.

- Launch Simulation: Open the
Smart_Disaster_Alert_System.pktfile using Cisco Packet Tracer (v8.0 or higher). - Execution & Interaction:
- Switch the tracking environment toggle to Realtime Mode to watch dynamic operations.
- To test automated hazards: Hold the
Altkey and interact with environment elements (e.g., spraying smoke near the Smoke Detector or altering water variables) to watch the system dynamically activate the flashing light indices and sound the high-decibel siren.
