Meeting Needs in Meeting Needs in Emergency ManagementEmergency Management
9/11 and the severe weather of 2004 provided the catalyst for reviewing how well governments had integrated technology into Emergency Management operations. The GIS Steering Committee directed TLC GIS staff to evaluate how GIS technology was being used within the business processes of Emergency Management.
Leon County operates the Leon County Emergency Operations Center which coordinates all emergency operations within Leon County.
The City of Tallahassee operates an Area Command Center in orderto facilitate the many functions of city services.

Key StepsKey StepsIn May of 2005, Leon County Emergency Management called a meeting of all the participants of the Emergency Operations Center in order to provide an update of recent technology advancements.
TLC GIS, Red Cross and City Stormwater provided demonstrations of their various efforts in technology.
TLC GIS provided a “straw man” application which provided an improvised idea for interactive mapping (building on already proven efforts of support).
The TLC GIS Coordinator invited the group to comment on the application and what they thought should be the next steps.
A work group was created that includes users and technical support in order to identify and implement improvements. TLC GIS staff continue to support additional application development. It also continues to provide support during exercises.
Partnered with ESRI to develop application in ArcGIS Server.
Emergency Management staff inform TLC GIS, they have a seat at the table.

The working group provided input on the most common information or map requests. TLC GIS created Pdf’s and placed them on the ArcIMS site for easy access. This allows each agency to pre-determine needs prior to an event.

Emergency Service PointsEmergency Service Points
The emergency service points are those facilities or service locations which just need their status defined to convey the desired information for general consumption.

Point EventsPoint EventsA Point Event would equate to a fire, a hazardous
chemical spill or a confined event to a specific location.
National Incident Management System, NIMS, Training which has recently been required for counties within the state. One central element to the training is the normalization of communications. NIMS symbologyis central to the Point Events.

NIMS NIMS SymbologySymbology
Using aerial photography, a Incident Command Post, Staging Areas, Incident Base, Camps or heliport can be quickly located from the EOC or from any PC or laptop which has the aerial photography.
This type of interface allows a daylight perspective even at night (future application improvements to include oblique photography).

NIMS NIMS SymbologySymbology
National Incident Management System, NIMS, provides common language and symbologyfor communicating across organizations in the case of an emergency or disaster.

Area EventsArea EventsAn area event includes both man-induced and natural disasters which impact a non-site specific location or multiple locations across a region.
ArcGIS Server provides an application that easily adapts from a point event to an area event with multiple incidents. It overcomes the primary issue for tracking multiple incidents during a disaster. A real time multiple editor environment.

Incident AttributesIncident Attributes
The common incidents carry statuses of open, closed or assigned. These are date-stamped for future reporting efforts.
As incidents are opened, editors identify whether they are impeding traffic. This allows for public safety officials to bypass areas where roads are blocked (future application improvements will incorporate automated routing).

The technology has allowed us the opportunity to do things we have always wanted to do with the resources we currently possess.
Future efforts include;Developing an ArcGIS Mobile Application that interfaces with the EOC Incident Mapper.Developing interfaces with work order managmement systems where feasible.
