ITU-T Focus Groups
Focus Groups are an instrument created by ITU-T that follow
ITU-T A.7 to augment the Study Group work programme by providing an alternative working environment for the quick development of specifications in their chosen areas. Focus Groups are now widely used to address industry needs as they emerge, and when they are not covered within an existing Study Group. The key difference between Study Groups and Focus Groups is the freedom that the latter have to organize and finance themselves. Focus Groups can be created very quickly, are usually short-lived and can choose their own working methods, leadership, financing, and types of deliverables.

FG-AI4NDM
|
ITU-T Focus Group on AI for Natural Disaster Management (FG-AI4NDM) (in operation since 2020-12) ITU-T Focus Group on AI for Natural Disaster Management (FG-AI4NDM) was established in December 2020, to explore the potential of AI in supporting data collection and handling, improving modelling across spatiotemporal scales, extracting complex patterns and gaining insights from a growing streams of geospatial data, to enhance the preparedness for (and response to) natural disasters. This FG seeks to build a community of stakeholders and experts to underscore the use of AI (in the context of data, modelling, and communication technologies) for natural disaster management and create a roadmap for AI activities in the context of natural disaster management.
