Abstract
A damage response system for deploying autonomous vehicles and providing services to a disaster-impacted location is disclosed. The system includes a damage detection module and a deployment manager. In response to information about a disaster at a specific location, the system will determine the extent of the damage and generate a curated selection of autonomous vehicles to travel to the location. The autonomous vehicles will be automatically selected based on their capacity to handle specific tasks that are needed based on the damage assessment performed by the damage detection module. The selected autonomous vehicles can then be automatically dispatched to the impacted area.
