information of damages.

Key information on damaged infrastructure is extracted from very high-resolution satellite imagery in an automatic way, while the data provided by volunteers through a smartphone application will confirm or reject the  detected damages, as well as provide additional data of potential relevance for crisis managers. By combining earth observation (EO) data with information obtained from crowdsourcing, we aim at improving the existing situational awareness picture by drastically increasing the detection and identification accuracy of damaged infrastructure, which will lead to:

• smarter resource allocation and Actions taken during or immediately after a disaster in order to save lives, reduce health impacts, ensure public safety and meet the basic subsistence needs of the people affected.

to Tsunami, geoBingAn serves great and demonstrated how ICT can work for humanity. With this ICT-based EOC, geoBingAn, for Fiji NDMO, now:

–elevate the evacuation plan to exit Suva Grammar School from 7 min to 5 min and 34 sec

–is empowered to know the Situation with its location and status

–can deliver better communication and coordination to the responders from NEOC

–can plan and publish the evacuation map for both web and mobile app access

–can administrate, time, and review the drill progress from its beginning to the end.
