The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and geospatial data is transforming the way we assess climate disaster risks in Cambodia, particularly floods and droughts. These advances provide critical insights that enable effective disaster preparedness and resilience-building. These insights are crucial for informed planning, budgeting, and targeting of disaster response efforts. By leveraging AI and geospatial data, it is possible to generate granular and location-specific information on disaster risks, which can be used to strengthen disaster risk reduction frameworks such as Implementing Frameworks of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), Early Warning for All (EW4All), Anticipatory Actions (AA), and Shock-Responsive Social Protection (SRSP). This enables the identification of high-risk areas and populations, allowing for targeted interventions and emergency response planning. By harnessing the potential of AI and geospatial data, Cambodia can enhance its capacity to prepare for and respond to natural disasters, ultimately reducing the impact of floods and droughts on communities and businesses.
