Indigenous knowledge in Hong Kong includes the Hakka practice of reading wind direction through the behaviour of coastal birds and the timing of tide‑dependent fishing activities to anticipate storm surges. Elders in New Territories villages still recount oral histories of typhoon warning signs such as sudden changes in sea colour and animal agitation. Integrating these observations into the AI city brain could improve hyper‑local lead times and ground truth validation.
