Abstract

Decision-making departments need more detailed and timely data in order to meet the needs of emergency response. Sichuan province is an area that frequently suffers natural disasters, and many disasters are caused by rainfall. This study establishes a decision support system (DSS) based on geoprocessing (GP) services, which can locate the region that overran the rainfall threshold and provide the population or property analysis, query, map plot, and path analysis functions. Most of the functions of the system are developed on the basis of geoprocessing services. This paper uses the warning–judgment module as an example to introduce the structure and function of the DSS system. The system satisfies the demands of real-time data acquisition, calculation, analysis, and presentation.

Highlights

  • The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) estimates that the disaster reduction rate owing to decision support systems (DSS) accounts for approximately 10–15% of the total benefits of global disaster reduction 1

  • Salah used Apache to build a water pollution management decision system (WaterDSS), building a calculation module based on PHP, which is a popular general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited to web development, to communicate with the Ajax-based foreground program

  • Thanks to the high stability and scalability of ArcGIS Server, with the use of the assembled geoprocessing (GP) services in the background, you can achieve the needs of most DSS functional requirements

Summary

Introduction

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) estimates that the disaster reduction rate owing to decision support systems (DSS) accounts for approximately 10–15% of the total benefits of global disaster reduction 1. There has been a large amount of research into Web- and GIS-based decision support systems. Salah used Apache to build a water pollution management decision system (WaterDSS), building a calculation module based on PHP, which is a popular general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited to web development, to communicate with the Ajax-based foreground program. This system achieves the inclusion of water resources data and map display functionality [3]. Thanks to the high stability and scalability of ArcGIS Server, with the use of the assembled geoprocessing (GP) services in the background, you can achieve the needs of most DSS functional requirements
