AV-EMS Emergency Management Software • Designed to aid in emergency response • and planning • Few options currently available • Many are strictly for recovery management • CAMEO
AV-EMS CAMEO (Computer Aided Management of Emergency Operations) • Set of linked programs • Developed by NOAA and EPA • Planning and response tool
AV-EMS Cameo Module • Complete chemical database • Response and toxicity information • Facility information tools
AV-EMS Aloha Module • Widely accepted air dispersion model • Predicts plume based upon: • Chemical properties • Atmospheric conditions
AV-EMS Aloha Module
AV-EMS Marplot Module • Simple map of plume • Based on TIGER data • Difficult to combine with your data
AV-EMS Marplot Module
AV-EMS How do we extend the use of CAMEO? • Move your data into Marplot • Bring dispersion footprint into ArcView
AV-EMS AV-EMS Overview • Relies on CAMEO to manage chemical data • Use Aloha to create input file • Read dispersion footprint into ArcView • Able to use ArcView tools and your data
AV-EMS Select the incident location
AV-EMS Select Aloha output file
AV-EMS Create dispersion footprint
AV-EMS Graphic Output
AV-EMS User defined report template
AV-EMS Tabular Output
AV-EMS Future Enhancements • Manage chemical & facility information • within ArcView • Additional query and reporting tools • Complete integration of model
