IMPROVING COMMUNICATION & ACTION

In the face of what seems to be an ever-increasing number of natural disasters, we need ways to provide complete situational awareness – and quickly. Our staff has been involved with a number of disaster response GIS efforts over the years and we possess Incident Command System (ICS) training.
