Improving Response Coordination and Situational Overview with GIS and UAVs
views
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have revolutionized emergency response coordination. Together they allow data analysis and visualization as well as real-time situational awareness and task management during emergencies.
GIS platforms offer a robust framework for organizing and analyzing geospatial data critical to emergency management, such as infrastructure, population density, and resource availability. By overlaying this information on interactive maps, emergency managers can effectively plan and allocate tasks, optimize resource utilization, and coordinate response efforts.
Drones play a vital role in gathering real-time data. They can capture aerial imagery, assess damage, locate survivors, and deliver essential supplies to inaccessible or hazardous areas.
Join us to hear how leading humanitarian organizations are integrating GIS and drones to streamline operations, improve task management, and enhance decision-making.
