The Disasters workshop is stuff organized by theUnshutGeospatial Consortium (OGC) and sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC), the US Geological Survey (USGS), and other Government agencies. The workshop is hosted at the NOAA Auditorium in Silver Spring, MD. The workshop is part of the OGC’s Disaster ConceptMinutiaeStudy, and will shape future activities to be led by OGC regarding disaster preparedness & response, and to inform minutiae of potential Disaster Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI). According to NOAA, in 2017 in the United States there were 16 major natural disasters with financing that exceeded 306 billion dollars, shattering previous yearly records. Can we save increasingly lives and reduce damages by providing largest discovery and wangle to data that will modernize mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery of disasters? The worthiness to powerfully share, use, and re-use geospatial information and applications wideness and between governments and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) in support of disaster response and resilience is dependent upon having a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) once in-place when disaster strikes. TheUnshutGeospatial Consortium (OGC) is bringing together key stakeholders in the natural hazards disaster communities to whop the emerging Disaster SDI by conducting a study and developing a set of pilots over the coming years. OGC's Disasters Interoperability ConceptMinutiaeStudy (CDS) will assess the current state of data and product mart technologies as used in disaster planning, response, and recovery. The information gained in the CDS will aid in developing a series of future pilots that will in turn whop the state of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs) that support disaster risk reduction wideness the globe. Specifically, the purpose of this workshop is to guide future OGC Innovation Program Activities by: Engaging executive level participants to understand the most important challenges Bringing together diverse sponsors to understand challenges that may translate into requirements for pilots that will kickoff in October 2018 Engaging variegated stakeholders in disasters Helping participants largest understand activities occuring at OGC and other key organizations Engaging operational and technical stakeholders to gather and share information on the current state for using geospatial data and services during natural disasters, including:Understanding what data, applications, tools, and services stakeholders need;Understanding what data, applications, tools, and services are available;Understanding discoverability, accessibility, and usability challenges;Understanding interoperability challenges and integration opportunities; andIdentifying gaps in data, applications, tools, and services.
