Natural disaster management needs to deal with large amount of data originated from various organizations and mass people. Therefore, a scalable environment provided with flexible information access, easy communication and real time collaboration from all types of computing devices, including mobile handheld devices, such as smart phones, PDAs and iPads are essential. It is mandatory that the system must be accessible, scalable, and transparent from location, migration and resources. In this paper a framework has been proposed in order to design a Cloud based workflow management system along with scheduler for natural disaster management system, where in Cloud environment, web service and EC2 technologies have been leveraged in order to design the Cloud based workflow model for disaster management system.
