Introduction:
As you know a tragic train incident happened in Odisha, where 3 trains were involved and they are Coromandel express (Howrah to Chennai), Yeshwanthpur- Howrah Express and a goods train.
In this accident over 288 people are dead, and over 1200 people were injured (severe and minor).
Right after the accident the local people, NDRF and ODRAF teams helped to rescue the people and dead bodies and helped them to reach the hospitals.
As the accident was so horrifying that many dead bodies were damaged, many lost their body parts and even head as well. There are also a few cases here where few are still unclaimed and a few are missing.
Success Received by Govt.:
Here it became a huge challenge for the govt to find the people dead or alive and make them meet their families. Till that is not complete, Govt is trying so hard tirelessly on this matter.
A great success is received now to Indian government to detect around 44-46 dead bodies with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Sound strange and exciting right? Yes, you read it correct.
After the accident, govt requested the Unique Identification Authority of India to come to the accident spot, and identify the dead bodies. The left hand thumb impressions, all five finger prints and retina scans were taken for many.
But many people skin was damaged and few lost the left finger and hand as well. So, detection of dead bodies became issue using Aadhar. Earlier, Aadhar helped in getting around 1000 missing people, but in this case particularly it could not help to identify the dead bodies so far.
What is Sanchar Saathi:
So, Govt has taken help of Sanchar Saathi, which is an AI tool recently launched and was inaugurated by the Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and linked to the railway system as well.
Since the AI system has a lot of photos available, it was able to scan and find the details of the person from the database by just a scan of their photos.
With this, govt got its great success in identifying the dead bodies.
Sanchar Saathi was mainly used to track lost Mobile, or how many mobile numbers tied with aadhar etc. Earlier rule was that one person can have 9 sims but people were having so many sims, so with help of Sanchar Saathi, many connections were removed.
Artificial Intelligence:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been there since many years but it is a golden time for AI to shine, since many developers are working on AI and they are bringing nearly many things to make possible with the help of AI. Today, by automating many things, AI has come to help people in their daily lives.
Many times we have been seeing many science fictions and AI related things in movies. Even, last year we heard that AI helped a dead woman talked to people at her funeral in UK.
Many tech saavy developers are now also working on to create avatars of the dead people in China.
Other Different Ways of Body Identification:
Now, the challenge is still there for the govt where many people's faces are damages, where Sanchar Saathi is unable to help. To deal this situation, govt is looking into another aspect to find the details of the dead bodies as well and that is SIM card triangulation system.
With this feature, it tries to locate the SIM by measuring the signal strength from the mobile phone, the nearest tower strength and taking the signal strength from other two towers with which the towers are connected to each other. After that with this triangulation feature, it could find the approximate position of the mobile in latitude and longitude.
They are also checking where accident happened, How many calls came before accident or went from the train. How many phones are switched off after the accident and before the accident. Along with tracing with the name from the railway database or chart and these angles, they are trying to find maximum details of the dead bodies.
The major issue happened for the general coach people and without ticket people, because Railway does not have any details of their travel.
Govt Packages:
As you also know Govt also declared a consolation package for the families of the dead bodies or the victims.
Govt will give 10 lakhs of rupees for dead passengers, 2 lakhs for the severe injured and 50 thousand rupees for the minor injuries.
