Computer Modeling for Emergency Planning and Management

Catalog description

Computers and the technology associated with them has drastically altered the world we live in. Instead of just documenting past disasters, computer modeling has allowed us to glimpse into the future. This provides a catalyst for emergency managers to emphasize mitigation and preparedness for potential incidents and events. All three disaster types, natural, technological and man-made can be modeled to some level providing the emergency manager the ability to manage in advance potential expected outcomes.
