Development of a GIS-based Spill Management Information System

A GIS-based generic real-time risk assessment framework and decision tools for chemical spills in the river basin

“…Nevertheless intentional or unintentional chemical spills continue to warning and emergency response systems (EWERSs) both for daily water quality management and spill response [1,6]. In the narrow sense, EWERS particularly points to emergency decision support system (EDSS) [7][8][9]. It primary serves response in the well recognized PPRR (prevention, preparedness, response and recovery) pattern of disaster management [10].…”

Application of an enhanced spill management information system to inland waterways

“…Currently available models for spill response assistance include 1D and 2D modeling systems such as RiverSpill and ICWater [2], GNOME [3], and SMIS 1.0 [4]. While some of these models provide rough estimates of spill plume locations, often in a geographic information system (GIS) environment, the representation of plume location is presented as leading edge [2] or in bulk river segments [4]. Efforts to overcome these limitations led the authors to develop an enhanced version of the Spill Management Information System (SMIS 2.0).…”

Implementation of a WebGIS-Based Geological Environment Data Management Information System for Guangyuan City

“…GIS is an information technology utilized to maintain and analyze geographic data capable of organizing data into layers and relating sets by geography. GIS functionality may also be delivered through a standard Internet browser, a valuable feature enabling the distribution of uniform and current data [7]. DBMS refers to software that collects, manipulates, queries, and retrieves tabular data.…”

“…DBMS refers to software that collects, manipulates, queries, and retrieves tabular data. Efficient database construction and combination of project-relevant datasets into a single application reduces instances of data redundancy, error, and computational lag time [7]. Browser/Server(B/S) framework and Web service are applied in GEMIS.…”
