11. Collapse of large building

12. Failure of critical infrastructure (electricity, gas, water, communication)

Population

13. Panic in crowds

14. Large scale disruptions of order

Natural Disasters

15. Flooding 16. Forest Fires

Natural Disasters

17. Extreme weather

(cold/warm/wet/dry)

e.g. heavy storm, extreme (ice) rain or snow or a heat or cold wave

18. Disasters at distance

(in neighboring countries which have an effect on our country, e.g. nuclear, floods, forest fire, etc.)

> Spatial aspects of Disasters

From Indicent… to Disaster…

> Relation between scale (extent/severity) and involved parties

Where are the risks…

> Risk Map of The Netherlands…

• Location of Risk generators (dangerous objects or areas)

• Risk distance zones (10^-6)

• Effect distance zones (m) Lethality

• Locations of Risk receivers (vulnerable objects or areas)

> www.risicokaart.nl

Source Area vs Effect Area

> “Gasmal” and “Sector mal” (danger zones)

> Positioning people and objects during Disasters…

Where the !#%^&@# is …………….. ?!

Lelystad Detention Centre

The Challenge…

> Can a position be determined? Indoor and Outdoor

for different disaster types?

> Which positional accuracy is needed and what

can be delivered technically (demand and supply)?

• Sometimes a rough indication of position is enough, sometimes not (e.g. Prison LBS Use Case… in or out the geofence, Room A is GO area Room B nextdoor is NOGO area)

• It really depends on the situation (type of disaster and use case scenario) and the technology used

Positioning

> Indoor incidents and disasters (buildings, tunnels)

> Outdoor incidents and disasters

Mobile Modem

> MOMO (used by fire departments and police)(www.eal.nl)

> GPS lokalisation I/O (inputs / outputs)

• Netwerk connectie

• GPRS / UMTS communicatie of RAM Mobitex communicatie

• WIFI

• Bluetooth

• Dual carrier functionality

> Disaster Management

The Safety and Security Chain

Mono- versus Multi-disciplinary

> Mono-disciplinary incidents

> Multi-disciplinary disasters

> The Conclusions

Conclusions…

Conclusions

> Disaster happen everywhere, indoor AND outdoor positioning scenarios

> …And under difficult conditions, special demands on equipment

> Communication lines and connections can be severely disturbed in DM situations, alternatives needed (plan B…) or local caching

> There are mono- and multi-disciplinary disasters

> A Common Operation Picture improves the Situational Awareness, especially in multi-disciplinary situations

> There are 2 types of IT architectures to create a COP, the central model and the distributed (P2P) model
