Abstract

The proliferation of online news sources enables rapid dissemination of disaster information, yet much of this content remains unstructured and difficult to analyze automatically. This paper presents a framework for transforming unstructured news reports into structured, actionable disaster intelligence. The approach combines continuous web scraping of news feeds, rule-based content filtering, and large language model (LLM)-based natural language processing for automated classification and information extraction. Key details including disaster type, geographic location, casualties, extent of damage, and official response are aggregated into a structured dataset and visualized on interactive spatio-temporal maps, supporting situational awareness and timely crisis management decisions.
