GIS for Emergency Management
Discover a modern approach to understanding threats and hazards that are more complex, costly, and devastating than ever before.
Dealing with Disasters: GIS for Emergency Management explores a collection of real-life case studies about emergency management agencies successfully using GIS for real and potential hazards. Each of the three themed parts--Preparedness, Disaster Response, and Disaster Recovery--also includes a "getting started with GIS" section that provides ideas, strategies, tools, and actions to help jump-start your own use of GIS for emergency management. A collection of online resources, including additional stories, videos, new ideas and concepts, and downloadable tools and content, complements this book.
