“…Those maps give a pre-disaster overview and are used for navigation issues too. The usage of latest satellite data depends on the availability of appropriate satellite imagery services, current weather conditions and obtainable infrastructure for accessing those maps on site (Voigt et al, 2007). In major scenarios helicopter systems are commonly used, although its operation is expensive and relies on existing infrastructure (Römer et al, 2013).…”

ABSTRACT:Natural disasters as well as major man made incidents are an increasingly serious threat for civil society. Effective, fast and coordinated disaster management crucially depends on the availability of a real-time situation picture of the affected area. However, in situ situation assessment from the ground is usually time-consuming and of limited effect, especially when dealing with large or inaccessible areas. A rapid mapping system based on aerial images can enable fast and effective assessment and analysis of medium to large scale disaster situations. This paper presents an integrated rapid mapping system that is particularly designed for real-time applications, where comparatively large areas have to be recorded in short time. The system includes a lightweight camera system suitable for UAV applications and a software tool for generating aerial maps from recorded sensor data within minutes after landing. The paper describes in particular which sensors are applied and how they are operated. Furthermore it outlines the procedure, how the aerial map is generated from image and additional gathered sensor data.

“…In the specific context of Emergency Mapping, reference data are intended as selected topographic features to be used to contextualize the event, to produce comprehensive and easy-to-use map products and to provide value-added information on damages (Voigt et al 2007). The systematic availability and the access to accurate and up-to-date spatial data at a suitable map scale are crucial issues, especially considering that Emergency Mapping has a global coverage requirement.…”

“…Moreover, although observation frequency could be a trade-off to spatial resolution, constellation satellites, such as RapidEye [51], COSMO-SkyMed [52], Pléiades system [53], and Sentinel system [50], breaks through the trade-off by using temporally-shifted satellites with identical specifications in the coplanar orbits [54]. Since changes in detection between pre-and post-disaster are the most effective and efficient methods for identifying hazard damages from satellite imagery [55,56], there is a potential need for baseline satellite images that cover disaster-prone areas, which can enable better preparedness.…”

Due to the fact that geospatial information technology is considered necessary for disaster risk management (DRM), the need for more effective collaborations between providers and end users in data delivery is increasing. This paper reviews the following: (i) schemes of disaster risk management and collaborative data operation in DRM; (ii) geospatial information technology in terms of applications to the schemes reviewed; and (iii) ongoing practices of collaborative data delivery with the schemes reviewed. This paper concludes by discussing the future of collaborative data delivery and the progress of the technologies.
