| 1 | First extensive and cost-effective quality check of Crisis Maps: presentation of assessment parameters and results显示文摘The digital representation of disaster situations into maps,mainly based on remotely sensed observations,is becoming a widely used instrument for emergency management.Thousands of maps are being produced all over the world and big attention is paid by international institutions,such as the World Bank,the United Nations and the European Commission to these tools.The quality of crisis maps is a crucial element to ensure effectiveness in the disaster response chain,but it is often neglected with respect to the need for a rapid delivery.In this paper a sample of crisis maps produced between 2005 and 2010 by world leader providers has been evaluated through around 40 parameters assessed by visual analysis and extracted from the validation protocol designed at the Joint Research Centre(JRC)of the European Commission.The maps turned out to be in most cases clearly readable,but some gaps and inconsistencies have been singled out,due to the lack of international standard references.The results are analysed in detail and some remarks are presented. | D.Carrion C.Corbane M.Broglia M.Pesaresi | 2013 | International Journal of Digital Earth2013，6，S02： | 0 |
| 2 | Development and implementation of a validation protocol for crisis maps: reliability and consistency assessment of burnt area maps显示文摘Validation is an emerging topic in the field of geospatial information for emergency response.In the framework of the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security initiative,the Services and Applications for Emergency Response project seeks to implement and validate the pre-operational version of Emergency Response Core Services.In that context,a dedicated effort has been made in the development and implementation of a comprehensive,productoriented validation protocol tailored to crisis maps and data sets.This paper presents the approach for validation of crisis maps and its application in the context of rapid mapping of forest fires in Corsica during the summer of 2009.It also discusses the main challenges and the critical aspects of validation of geospatial information in emergency response services. | C.Corbane D.Carrion M.Broglia | 2011 | International Journal of Digital Earth2011，4，S01： | 0 |
