Abstract : This paper discusses the importance of an emergency response system for the ocean disasters that affect the life of the fisher community. Ocean emergencies can vary from the extreme climatic conditions, collision between boats and ships as well as other unexpected health emergencies that may be faced by the older fishermen while at the ocean. We discuss the challenges in implementing disaster response activities in ocean scenarios and propose an IoT solution for the fisher community to help them during emergencies as well as to maintain frequent communication with the shore. This paper also presents how this IoT solution can bring a change in the fishermen’s life and how our solution can be used when they are in danger. We also proposed a partial-context aware algorithm that helps to monitor the fishing vessel movements and how this algorithm can help during an emergency.
