The Disasters Resilience Pilot 2019 has completed.

Organized by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), the Pilot was sponsored by US Geological Survey. The OGC Disasters Resilience Pilot 2019 focused on the demonstration of the usefulness of standards and SDI architecture within the Disaster community. This Pilot built on previous work that was executed as the Disasters Interoperability Concept Development Study (CDS) and was documented in the OGC Development of Disaster Spatial Data Infrastructures for Disaster Resilience.

This OGC initiative had active involvement by several OGC member organizations.

Goals of this pilot included:

  • To articulate the value of interoperability and to demonstrate the benefits of standards through pilot(s) and demonstrations.

  • To improve disaster planning and response capability

  • To develop Cookbook / User guides and demonstrations to support developers, analyst and other disasters stakeholders.

 The Disasters Resilience Pilot delivering User Guides (Cookbooks) and video (below) on accessing and integrating geospatial information from different sources and giving the …

Right Info to Right Person at Right Time

In addition, this pilot demonstrated how data standards help stakeholders and decision makers gain new and beneficial perspectives into social, economic, and environmental issues related to disasters.

The multiple User Guides focus on specific users and disaster scenarios. These scenarios may be an individual disaster or a cascading series as shown below.
