Zusammenfassung |
The project "Risk Map Germany" of the Center for Disaster Management and
Risk Reduction Technology (CEDIM) aims at the examination of existing and
the development of new approaches for integrated risk assessment as well as
the realisation of risk analyses for selected threats and regions. Hazard,
vulnerability and risk maps display the results and provide valuable
information for planning, insurances, emergency management, science and the
public.
This article describes the development of the basic information
infrastructure for CEDIM and the "Risk Map Germany" providing components
for the networking of participating institutions, for common data
management, data dissemination and publication. While a web based project
platform offers information and communication facilities for all the project
members and also the presentation of CEDIM to the public, an integrated data
base is prepared as foundation for cross-discipline but common risk
assessment. It is made available by the spatial data service "CEDIM Data
Center" which allows the project members to inform themselves about the
characteristics of existing data and its applicability for their specific
tasks by exploring GIS functionalities. Suitable data can be downloaded and
further processed in their own work environment. The components' alignment
with the principles of Spatial Data Infrastructures is required to
accomplish the suppositions for long-term availability and accessibility of
data, information and services. |
