Summary:
Geo-information technologies offer an opportunity to aid management and recovery in the aftermath of industrial accidents, road collisions, complex emergencies, earthquakes, fires, floods and similar catastrophes.
The symposium will focus primarily on the response and secondarily on the relief phase of disaster management encouraging a wide discussion on systems and requirements for use of geo-information under time and stress constrains and unfamiliar situations, environments and circumstances. The symposium will address these challenges by opening discussion between technology developers (software and hardware), disaster management bodies, information providers, developers of standards and users.
