This edited book entertains a multitude of perspectives on crisis
information management systems (CIMS)-based disaster response and
recovery management. The use of information technology in disaster
management has become the central means for collecting, vetting,
and distributing information. It also serves as the backbone for
coordination and collaboration between response and recovery units
as well as resource management tool. This edited volume aims at
covering the whole range of application and uses of CIMS in
disaster response and recovery. It showcases coordination and
collaboration mechanisms between government agencies, the
involvement of non-governmental entities, lessons learned as well
as lessons not learned, approaches to disaster resiliency in
society, community engagement in disaster/catastrophe responses and
recovery, and, particularly, the role of CIMS in response and
recovery. Serving as a platform for showcasing recent academic
discoveries as well as a knowledge source for practitioners, this
volume will be of interest to researchers and practitioners
interested in disaster response, public administration, emergency
management, and information systems.
