Show Notes

In this digital age, we need a computerized information management system to better obtain situational awareness about a disaster. A system that collects and displays information helps with the allocation of resources. Through an interview with Hans Jochen Scholl, PhD, a Professor in the Information School at the University of Washington, this podcast examines what is needed, and also the current failures of WebEOC, one such system that is widely used in the United States.

Dynamis, a leading provider of information management software and security solutions is a sponsor of this podcast.
