Nokia launches Cognitive Operations AI and edge platform for mining, public safety and defense

The Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, or DE, has opened three main channels for online incident reporting: Jitasa Care, Traffy Fondue, and the Jaeng Rat system, aiming to reduce data duplication and speed up disaster management. All three channels connect to the Integrated Disaster Management Platform, or IDMP, developed by the DE Ministry through the Digital Government Development Agency, or DGA, and the Big Data Institute, or BDI, together with the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation under the Ministry of Interior. The platform links systems covering everything from disaster warnings and receiving reports of distress to mobilising rescue volunteers, evacuating people to shelters, and registering for compensation payments. Most of the systems are already operational, with only the disaster management and administration system still integrating data. Chaichanok Chidchob, Minister of Digital Economy and Society, said after attending a meeting of the National Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Command on 8 October 2026 that the ministry had assigned National Telecom Public Company Limited, or NT, and telecom operators to prepare primary communications systems, backup systems, and emergency systems in the southern region. NT and Thailand Post Company Limited were also told to prepare vehicles, high-lift trucks, and communications systems to support assistance for people nationwide. Arada Luengwilai, Deputy Director and Acting Director of the DGA, said the disaster warning system and the compensation registration system had already been used during the flood incident in Nan Province and in the current situation in Bangkok. The rescue volunteer system has more than 29,000 registrants nationwide and has been used in Nan Province and Sa Kaeo Province, where 554 volunteers registered and about 119 actually took part in operations. Professor Dr. Theeranee Achalakul, Director of the BDI, said the BDI developed a Data Hub system to link incident report data from multiple systems. It is currently connected to Traffy Fondue, Jitasa Care, and Jaeng Rat, and is in the process of connecting to the 1784 safety hotline of the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation in order to gather data, verify it, and reduce duplication before producing standardised datasets and a Dashboard both during incidents and after relief operations.
