ArcGIS Server Document Management

Documents. Anywhere. Anytime.
Emergency preparedness, whether at the Federal, state, or local level depends on detailed and effective Emergency Operations Plans (EOPs). The DHS and FEMA describe the EOP as “the centerpiece of comprehensive emergency management.” One obstacle to the timely utilization of EOPs, however, is their length: a typical state, city or county EOP might consist of a central outline plus as many as 30 separate annexes, sometimes amounting to hundreds of pages, which can hinder as much as help decision-makers in their attempts to understand the impact of a natural or man-made disaster, visualize their options, and implement solutions.39 Degrees North is therefore pleased to present the Spatial Infrastructure Support System (SISS™), a set of software tools that integrate and spatially enable EOPs by linking them to a Geographic Information System (GIS). SISS™ will bring the collectors and processors of geospatial intelligence into direct contact with the decision-makers who interpret EOPs, thereby improving the dissemination, visualization, analysis, and sharing of information throughout the Emergency Operations Center (EOC).

ESRI’s ArcGIS Server is an industry-standard software package for managing geospatial information over the web. Across the business spectrum, from retail and trucking, to oil and gas, to local government and homeland security, enterprises that use ArcGIS Server to distribute spatial data can increase the mobility and productivity of their workforces and streamline their decision-making processes.
