dc.description.abstract | Small Island Developing States (SIDS) increasingly face natural hazards that overwhelm
their capacity to generate and share spatial-information to reduce human–economic losses. Under
such circumstances, the emergency mapping team (EMT) enables a common operational picture of
the impacted communities. This paper aims to identify user requirements for EMT operations in the
Caribbean and, based on those findings, improve the level of preparedness to deliver informationservices
that contribute to disaster risk management in the region. The results are built upon a
case-study and a survey targeted for technical personnel responsible for emergency mapping in three
Caribbean states: the Dominican Republic, Saint Lucia and Sint Maarten. Our findings revealed five
user requirements for EMT operations: institutional arrangements, implementation of a Cloud-based
spatial data infrastructure, linking community stakeholders, partnerships and capacity building.
This study provides the foundation for future EMT developments in the Caribbean region and in
others SIDS with similar settings in the world. | en_US |
