Abstract

Geological hazard is one of the major natural hazards world facing now, In order to prevent and predict geological hazard, techniques for geological hazard management, assessment and prediction must be developed for the prevention of geological hazards. In this paper, a geological environment data management information system (GEMIS) was implemented based on WebGIS. GEMIS is designed for management geological environment data, as well as geological hazard point. GEMIS has achieved the functions for geological environmental data displaying, querying and analyzing, and many users can share the same geological environmental data due to the B/S frame work. The use of GEMIS can improve and enhance the rapid identification of receptor sites and fate of geological hazards, improving response time and mitigation strategies in the event of a geological hazard. GEMIS also provides each incident responder with access to the same maps and geological hazard information that other responders possess.

Highlights

  • Geological hazard is one of the major natural hazards the world facing and each year is responsible for enormous property damage involving both direct and indirect costs [1]

  • China has laid the foundation for geologic hazard survey and zoning, the large-scale geologic environment information is not fully available and the geologic hazard risk evaluation must be pressed ahead steadily [2]

  • In order to more effectively manage geological environment data in Guangyuan city, this study provides an approach to implement a geological environment data management information system (GEMIS) based on WebGIS

Summary

Introduction

Geological hazard is one of the major natural hazards the world facing and each year is responsible for enormous property damage involving both direct and indirect costs [1]. China has laid the foundation for geologic hazard survey and zoning, the large-scale geologic environment information is not fully available and the geologic hazard risk evaluation must be pressed ahead steadily [2]. Great changes have taken place in the geological construction and environment of Longmenshan Mountain and Michangshan Mountain, which are the main mountains in Guangyuan city. This leads multiplied geological hazards in this area. In order to more effectively manage geological environment data in Guangyuan city, this study provides an approach to implement a geological environment data management information system (GEMIS) based on WebGIS
