Building Agreement Through Selective Stakeholder Engagement
Resilience as Property Value Rebound
For residential structures in America’s coastal communities, resilience is an essential system quality. Such resilience is best conceptualized as a given system’s ability to anticipate, respond to, recover from, and adapt to disruption. Practically, the quantification of parcel-scale resilience requires detailed temporal data and the ability to assess various indicators of system performance variability. This paper considers expanded datasets rel…
Simplifying humanitarian assistance/disaster relief analytic models using activity-based intelligence
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose an effective knowledge elicitation method and representation scheme that empowers humanitarian assistance/disaster relief (HA/DR) analysts and experts to create analytic models without the aid of data scientists and methodologists while addressing the issues of complexity, collaboration, and emerging technology across a diverse global network of HA/DR organizations. Design/methodology/approach The p…
Temporary disaster debris management site identification using binomial cluster analysis and GIS
An essential component of disaster planning and preparation is the identification and selection of temporary disaster debris management sites (DMS). However, since DMS identification is a complex process involving numerous variable constraints, many regional, county and municipal jurisdictions initiate this process during the post-disaster response and recovery phases, typically a period of severely stressed resources. Hence, a pre-disaster appro…
Systems engineering design and spatial modeling for improved natural hazard risk assessment
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a novel modeling approach that combines a balanced systems engineering design model with a geospatial model to explore the complex interactions between natural hazards and engineered systems. Design/methodology/approach The approach taken in this work was to assemble a combined systems engineering design/geospatial model and interface it with a physics‐based hazard model to assess how to visualize t…
