Disaster Database Management System

Mapping and Modeling Project

State Resiliency Curriculum

Risk Reduction and Resiliency Building Program

Disaster Database Management System:

• Identify vulnerable populations impacted by disaster in real-time.• Information for disaster managers, policy-makers, and key social support services. • Builds upon the current 2-1-1 Information & Referral (I&R) data to identify “hot-spots” of unmet need(s) in real-time during the response and recovery phases of a disaster.

Risk Reduction and Resiliency Building Program

Mapping and Modeling Project• Partnership with the University of Texas.• Detailed methodology on how to best analyze data for hazard identification and apply vulnerability assessments.• Best planning approaches to green infrastructure, capital improvement expenditures, housing needs, and economic development strategies.

Risk Reduction and Resiliency Building Program

State Resiliency Curriculum• Partnership with the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension.• Tools, techniques, best practices, and co-benefits to resiliently address hazards • Takes into account the whole community and helps plan, conserve, assist localities in the development of resilient projects.
