| Title | An Automatic Approach to Qualitative Risk Assessment in Metropolitan Areas | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2019 | Publication | Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response And Management | Abbreviated Journal | Iscram 2019 |

| Abstract | Risk assessment aims at improving prevention and preparedness phases of the crisis management lifecycle. Qualitative risk assessment of a system is important for risks identification and analysis by the various stakeholders and often requires multi-disciplinary knowledge. We present an automatic approach to qualitative risk assessment in metropolitan areas using semantic techniques. In particular, users are provided with a computational support to identify and prioritize by relevance risks of city services, through generation of semantic descriptions of risk situations. This approach is enabled by a software system consisting of: TERMINUS, a domain ontology representing city knowledge; WS-CREAM, a web service implementing risk identification and ranking functions; and CIPCast, a GIS-based Decision Support System with functions of risk forecast due to natural hazards. Finally we present the results of a preliminary validation of the generated risks concerning some points of interest in two different areas of the city of Rome. |

| Title | Sharing Incident and Threat Information for Common Situational Understanding | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2019 | Publication | Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response And Management | Abbreviated Journal | Iscram 2019 |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Common operational picture, situational awareness, collaboration support, geographic information systems, terminology harmonisation | ||||
| Abstract | This paper presents the INSITU research project initiated to provide a systematic approach for effective sharing, integration and use of information from different sources, to establish a common operational picture (COP) and shared situational understanding among multiple actors in emergency response. The solution developed will provide an interactive map display, integrating harmonisation of terminology and collaboration support for information sharing and synthesis. The enhanced COP will also support evaluation and learning from exercises and incidents. The project involves close collaboration with emergency management stakeholders in Norway, for requirements analysis, participatory design, and validation of project deliverables. The research will improve information sharing and decision support in emergency operations centres, which will contribute to improve societal resilience through more effective response capability. | ||||

| Abstract | This article contributes to identifying the capabilities of Instagram when utilized as a source of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) for disaster management (DM) purposes. The geographic focus of this research is in the Mediterranean area. As case study, the fire event of East Attica 2018, Greece, was chosen. This major fire occurred on the 23rd of July 2018 and caused the death of 100 people, the injury of additional 164 while the total burnt area was about 1275,9ha. It is the deadliest in modern Greece?s history and the second deadliest at a global level, within the 21st century. About 15000 related photos along with the corresponding captions and timestamps were crawled from Instagram. An initial sample of about 1100, was analyzed, by using a certain methodology divided in certain steps, the most important of which include the classification of the information to certain categories, geo-referencing and the creation of graphs and maps that visualize the processed data. |

| Title | Emergency management systems to accommodate ships in distress | Type | Conference Article | ||

| Abstract | As a future member of the European Union (EU), Croatia has decided to implement EU Directive 2002/59/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council binding all EU member states to define places of refuge for ships in need of assistance off their coasts, or to develop techniques for providing assistance to such ships. Consequently, the Ministry of the Sea, Tourism, Transport and Development of the Republic of Croatia has initiated a project for developing an effective Decision Support System (DSS) for defining the places of refuge for ships in distress at sea. Such a system would include a model based upon GIS and different operational research models, which would eventually result in establishing an integral DSS. Starting points for analysis are shipping corridors, and 380 potential locations for places of refuge designated in the official navigational pilot book. Multicriteria analysis, with GIS-generated input data, would be used to establish worthiness of a place of refuge for each ship category, taking into account kinds of accident. Tables of available intervention resources would be made, as well as analysis of their availability in respect of response time, and quantitative and qualitative sufficiency. | ||||

| Title | A distributed spatiotemporal cognition approach to visualization in support of coordinated group activity | Type | Conference Article | ||
| Year | 2006 | Publication | Proceedings of ISCRAM 2006 – 3rd International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management | Abbreviated Journal | ISCRAM 2006 |
| Volume | Issue | Pages | 347-351 | ||
| Keywords | Disaster prevention; Information systems; Web services; Distributed cognition; Geo visualizations; Geocollaboration; International Relief; Spatiotemporal Cognition; Web-map services; Geographic information systems | ||||
| Abstract | Technological advances in both distributed cooperative work and web-map services have the potential to support distributed and collaborative time-critical decision-making for crisis response. We address this potential through the theoretical perspective of distributed cognition and apply this perspective to development of a geocollaborationenabled web application that supports coordinated crisis management activities. An underlying goal of our overall research program is to understand how distributed cognition operates across groups working to develop both awareness of the geographic situation within which events unfold, and insights about the processes that have lead to that geographic situation over time. In this paper, we present our preliminary research on a web application that addresses these issues. Specifically, the application (key parts of which are implemented) enables online, asynchronous, map-based interaction between actors, thus supporting distributed spatial and temporal cognition, and, more specifically, situational awareness and subsequent action in the context of humanitarian disaster relief efforts. | ||||
