Flood Management and Geoinformation Support within the Emergency Cycle (EU Example)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Paper describes the state-of-the-art of flood management both in the Czech Republic and in the broader framework of EU. Special focus is given to geoinformation and cartographic issues within consecutive parts of emergency management cycle used in European Union countries (prevention, preparation, response, and recovery phases). For each phase an adaptive mapping solution is outlined. The principles of adaptive cartography and its applications are

The Floodrelief Internet-based Flood Forecasting Decision Support System
For operational flood forecasting and operational decision-makers, ready access to current and forecasted meteorological conditions is essential for initiating flood response measures and issuing flood warnings. Effective flood forecasting systems must provide reliable, accurate and timely forecasts for a range of catchments; from small rapidly responding urban areas, to large, more slowly resp...
متن کاملGeoinformation Technologies to Support Collaborative Emergency Management
In today's emergency management environments geoinformation technologies play a vital role, but their potential has not been fully exploited. Key decision makers usually do not have direct access to Geographic Information Systems and if they receive access, complex user interfaces often hinder performance for high pressure tasks. In order to provide decision makers with direct and easy access t...
