The three-tiered disaster management approach, disaster planning, disaster response and disaster recovery, is ripe for innovation through integrated knowledge and technology transfer efforts between university researchers, technology companies, and public sector responders. The period immediately following a disaster can be critical to preserving human life and property, and recent events have highlighted the need for system-wide improvements. Rochester Institute of Technology ( RIT. In which the IPLER p...

Flood Disaster Management | IPLER
http://ipler.cis.rit.edu/flood
The Susquehanna river (Binghamton, NY) flooded its banks in 2006 - the WASP. System was able to map 44 linear miles in two hours. UB's Landscape-based Environmental System Analysis and Modeling (LESAM). Group and RIT's Laboratory for Imaging Algorithms and Systems (LIAS). Have established track records in remote sensing of hydrology and flood events. Examples include UB's GeoWEPP. Program and flood mapping using RIT's WASP. Lidar over RIT's campus:.
