Applications of GIS: Disaster Management and Emergency Response

119
Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is essential for risk identification, action prioritization, and resource optimization in critical situations like flooding and earthquakes. By integrating spatial and demographic data, GIS provides a comprehensive framework for emergency response.GIS integrates data layers, like rainfall intensity, topography, elevation profiles, and river levels, to model high-risk flood zones. These layers assess areas susceptible to flooding based on their...

    • To introduce VRescue, a novel virtual reality (VR) simulator for training USAR operators.
    • To enhance the ability of USAR personnel to identify potential survivor locations in simulated disaster settings.
    • To provide a realistic and immersive training platform for USAR equipment usage.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of VRescue, an immersive virtual reality simulator.
    • Recreation of diverse operational conditions, including lighting, environmental hazards, and victim presence.
    • Integration of training modules for essential USAR equipment and triage procedures.

    Main Results:

    • VRescue offers a dynamic and interactive training environment superior to traditional methods.
    • The simulator effectively replicates various post-disaster scenarios, improving situational awareness.
    • Users can practice critical decision-making and equipment handling in a safe, virtual space.

    Conclusions:

    • VRescue represents a significant advancement in USAR operator training through immersive VR.
    • The simulator enhances preparedness for real-world search and rescue operations.
    • VR technology offers a scalable and effective solution for specialized emergency response training.
