In all aspects of emergency management, geospatial data and tools have the potential to help save lives, limit damage, and reduce the costs of dealing with emergencies. Great strides have been made in the past four decades in the development of geospatial data and tools that describe locations of objects on the Earth's surface and make it possible for anyone with access to the Internet to witness the magnitude of a disaster. However, the effectiveness of any technology is as much about the human systems in which it is embedded as about the technology itself. Successful Response Starts with a Map assesses the status of the use of geospatial data, tools, and infrastructure in disaster management, and recommends ways to increase and improve their use. This book explores emergency planning and response; how geospatial data and tools are currently being used in this field; the current policies that govern their use; various issues related to data accessibility and security; training; and funding. Successful Response Starts with a Map recommends significant investments be made in training of personnel, coordination among agencies, sharing of data and tools, planning and preparedness, and the tools themselves."--Publisher's description. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Geographic information systems|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh90001880|xDefense measures|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005480|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330- 781 650 0 Civil defense|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85139930 650 0 Emergency management|zUnited States.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008102968 650 2 Civil Defense.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D002959 650 2 Disasters.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D004190 650 2 Geographic Information Systems.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/ mesh/D040362 650 7 Geographic information systems.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/940423 650 7 Civil defense.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/862456 650 7 Emergency management.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 908500 651 2 United States.|0https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014481 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aNational Research Council (U.S.).
