Are You Ready for the Next Emergency?

Plan, Manage, Track Changes, and Facilitate Communication Easily

Preparedness is essential for any emergency. From hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters to health pandemics and terrorist events, local agencies have a duty to protect their citizens. The Emergency Operations Center (EOC) for CityGIS™ is the first integrated, online repository for capturing and maintaining critical information before an incident; managing, tracking and communicating during an incident; and assessing the financial and resource usage after the incident.

Before an Incident

The CityGIS™ EOC module provides a central repository for capturing pre-incident information including:

  • Critical infrastructure: roads, electric, water, sewer
  • Assets
  • Personnel
  • Potential hazards

EOC for CityGIS™ integrates into your emergency planning drills to ensure familiarity across departments and among key organizations within your emergency operations community. Online tools make training easy.

A 7.5 Earthquake resulted in a dam rupture.

  • Red boundary: dam inundation area
  • Stop signs: Traffic Control points with officers
  • Hospital: in need of evacuation

With the aid of aerial imagery faster, more informed decisions are made.

The above example is from a real drill. The earthquake and subsequent freeway collapse resulted in a very tough decision not to send emergency personnel to help with the evacuation of the hospital due to rising and fast moving water and the impassable roads.
