The majority of these casualties and property loss could be prevented if better information were available regarding the onset and course of such disasters. Several remote sensing technologies, such as meteorological and Earth observation satellites, communication satellites, and satellite-based positioning, supported by geoinformation technologies, offer the potential to contribute to improved prediction and monitoring of potential hazards, risk mitigation, and disaster management which, in turn, would lead to sharp reductions in losses to life and property. This book explores most of the scientific issues related to spatially supported disaster management and its integration with geographical information system technologies in different disaster examples and scales. Dealing with disasters over space and time represents a long-lasting theme, now approached by means of innovative techniques and modelling approaches. Several priorities for actions are outlined toward preventing new and reduce existing disaster risks, including understanding disaster risk, strengthening disaster risk governance for management of disaster risk, investing in disaster reduction for resilience, and enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response. This book presents ideas to address the challenges facing different components of spatial patterns related to ecological processes, and the published articles extended versions of selected presentations from the Gi4DM Conference in 2019 in Prague. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aEnvironmental economics$2bicssc 610 $amapping impact 610 $atidal flood 610 $ahydrodynamic model 610 $asolar salt farming 610 $adrone 610 $acomputer vision 610 $apoint clouds 610 $amachine learning 610 $aCNN 610 $aGAN 610 $afirst responder 610 $aRECONASS 610 $aINACHUS 610 $amulti-hazard 610 $asusceptibility mapping 610 $adeveloping urban settlements 610 $alandslide 610 $aflood 610 $alogistic regression 610 $aMamdani fuzzy algorithm 610 $aM-AHP 610 $acartographic symbols 610 $amap symbology 610 $acrisis map 610 $acomparative analysis 610 $ataxonomy 610 $agraphic design 610 $aavailability 610 $apromulgation 610 $asharing 610 $astandardisation 610 $aBlack sea 610 $asea level change 610 $atide gauge 610 $asatellite altimetry 610 $aGNSS 610 $apost-fire management 610 $aforest regeneration 610 $afire severity mapping 610 $amultispectral imagery 610 $aSentinel-2A 610 $aunmanned aerial vehicles 610 $aParrot SEQUOIA 610 $aclimate change 610 $afuzzy logic 610 $aGIS, household 610 $aIndex method 610 $asea level rise 610 $avulnerability 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aEnvironmental economics 700 $aAltan$b Orhan$4edt$0276451 702 $aTanzi$b Tullio Joseph$4edt 702 $aChandra$b Madhu$4edt 702 $aSunar$b Filiz$4edt 702 $aHalounova?$b Lena$4edt 702 $aAltan$b Orhan$4oth 702 $aTanzi$b Tullio Joseph$4oth 702 $aChandra$b Madhu$4oth 702 $aSunar$b Filiz$4oth 702 $aHalounova?$b Lena$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557426203321 996 $aGI for Disaster Management$93024505 997 $aUNINA
