Capability
- Forecast horizons tuned to decision cycles — 12, 24, 72 hours.

- Air ambulance demand forecasting from disaster type, population affected, terrain accessibility and reported injury severity.
- Pre-positioning recommendations rather than automatic commitments.
Context
Within the system
Need Forecasting is module 5.2 of Predictive Analytics System, which moves the platform from reacting to a disaster to anticipating its next phase.
Response that is purely reactive is always behind the event. This system applies machine learning to historical and live data to forecast how a situation will develop and where need will emerge next — including where air ambulances are likely to be required.
