40: GIS medical resource reporting

BACKGROUND:

How do we report medical information from a non-standard place where injured or sick people are accumulating during a disaster, like a ballpark field or nursing home?

GOALS:

Integrate GIS tools with data monitoring and alert programs to support comprehensive medical resource reporting.

39: Situational Awareness & Visualization

BACKGROUND:

Situational awareness is problematic in crisis situations, and there is a constant challenge found in collecting, analyzing, and disseminating accurate information frequently and rapidly.

GOALS:

Maintain a visual GIS understanding of the area around the Core operations.

38: Team Tracking

BACKGROUND:

In a disaster, it is very important to know where people are located in order to deliver supplies and relief, and to plan and run rescue missions. We need to physically know where core team members are located as they move around.

GOALS:

Maintain GPS tracker identification of SA-III core ops participants. Map GIS locations with video-VOIP capabilities.
