Technical Information in Long-Range Planning
Planning Section will demonstrate the ability to
do a technical- needs assessment, and procure and manage technical information resources
to assist in long-range event planning and emergent situation management.
POINTS OF REVIEW:
- Did Planning Section and GIS work together to share information, needs, and
capabilities? Yes. The Planning Section, GIS, and Hydrology Team worked well
together, once they began to get an appreciation for what they could do for (and needed
from) each other. Given that it was a learning curve, the cooperation and teamwork was
very good!
- Did Planning Section determine the need for and request hydrology predictions? Yes,
same as above.
- Did Planning Section pass technical information and predictions appropriately
through ECC communications? Not observed, although it seemed the information
products of GIS and Hydrology were generally aimed at specific users such as
transportation and law enforcement. It appeared that the majority of the players did not
get the information/projections.
- Was Planning Section able to begin the planning process using estimates while
waiting for more accurate information to be produced? Yes. The Planning
Section Chief did a good job getting an early focus on evacuation and shelter data…
and requesting detailed info as soon as available. It was not clear to this evaluator who
was really doing the evacuation planning, making decisions, getting the word out, etc.
