Abstract
This work primarily comprises of designing a framework of an information bot for an opportunistic mobile environment in post disaster situation. The bot would collect the required classes information periodically through questioning various mobile nodes by considering their roles (i.e. Volunteer, Local People and Victims) in disaster situation. Besides, it would validate the collected information through sharing with other nodes of same area of interest during information exchange. A portion of the designed framework has been considered for emulation in AIML platform using python. From observations, it is evident that the assistance of an information bot during data acquisition and validation is worthwhile for preservation of consistent disaster intent information.
