Abstract: | Recent emergency flood situations at European rivers have revealed the demand for better and in-time information for citizens
in flood prone areas about flood development, as well as better coordination of resources and actions during pre-flood phases
and its critical stage. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has a large potential to improve the situation. Decisions
may be supported by information about resources available at the region and national level, by information about means and
access to critical locations at the prevention as well as the evacuation phases, and by including citizens as well as managers
into one common information and communication process. The paper outlines the potential of ICT for these aspects. |
