Study on Electric Power Emergency Management Platform
Power system technology, 2008Co-Authors: Xie Ying-junAbstract:Based on the researching on electric power Emergency Management in depth,the authors propose a conception of electric power Emergency Management platform and discourse upon the relation between electric power Emergency Management platform and power dispatching system during Emergency Management process. On the basis of wide investigation and deep analysis,an overall framework of power Emergency Management platform is put forward and the detailed description on the composition of power Emergency Management platform is given;the information acquisition and exchange system and contents for Emergency Management platform are pointed out;a comprehensive application system of power Emergency Management platform is designed and functional requirements of subsystems are analyzed in detail. Finally,the key technologies to be further researched for power Emergency Management platform are analyzed.

Cyber security for Emergency Management
Technologies for Homeland Security HST 2010 IEEE International Conference on, 2010Co-Authors: Jessie Walker, Byron J. Williams, Gordon W. SkeltonAbstract:Cyber security continues to be an increasingly important topic when considering Homeland Security issues. This area however is often overlooked during a disaster or Emergency situation. Emergency Management within the US as it currently stands lacks any real cyber situational awareness with respect to the core activities of Emergency Management such as mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. As a result critical cyber-infrastructure resources that Emergency Management personnel rely on is left on the sideline when planning, handling, and recovering from emergencies or natural disasters. As Emergency Management evolves within the US to handle dynamic man-made, and natural disasters such as terrorist attacks, hurricanes, and floods, these issues must be addressed to mitigate risks. This paper takes the first step in examining the issue of cyber situational awareness within Emergency Management and identifies several concerns for the Emergency Management community.

Strategies to Prepare Emergency Management Personnel to Integrate Geospatial Tools into Emergency Management
International Journal of Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management, 2009Co-Authors: Tricia Toomey, Eric G. Frost, Murray E. JennexAbstract:Emergency Management is a diverse field. Effective disaster Management involves knowledge of various subjects as well as work experience in all aspects related to mitigation, planning, response, and recovery efforts. One field not being fully exploited by disaster Management is the use of geospatial tools in the form of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), cartography, and geovisualization. One reason for this is that many Emergency managers are not fully aware of the assistance GIS can lend to effectively manage disaster situations. All functions of Emergency Management have a strong geographic component. Where is the earthquake epicenter? Where is the damage? Where does the dam inundation run and who/what is in that path? Where is the area of road closures? The questions asking "where" are endless in effective Emergency Management and range from the mitigation stage through to the recovery stage. For example, a tsunami may inundate only a certain portion of the region, therefore, it is important to have mitigation and planning efforts concentrated in those regions. It is also important to know what businesses, housing, and populations are in the affected areas. The integration of geospatial tools for risk assessment, mitigation, planning, response, and recovery efforts is emerging as an effective and potentially invaluable resource for answering such questions in regards to Emergency Management.
