Use Cloud-Based GIS Technology to Deliver Briefings to Build Resilient Communities

Anonymous User

 

Weather warnings and watches issued by national and regional authorities are the primary means of communicating the risk of severe weather to the public. Operationally, this communication requires cross-agency collaboration and coordination, which are made easier with cloud-based GIS technology such as ArcGIS Online. This webinar will demonstrate how GIS technology improves weather hazard warnings and watches and enhances communication between forecasters and the public. You will learn how GIS facilitates modernized virtual and on-the-fly statewide and national briefings. Briefings are delivered during dynamic situations with current streaming refresh capabilities, and virtual chat functionality allows agile tactical decision-making for enhanced hazard mitigation and resource deployment.
