An Innovative Approach for Designing an Emergency Risk Management System for Natural Disasters

Dimiter Velev and Plamena Zlateva

Abstract—The paper discusses an innovative approach for designing an emergency risk management system for natural disasters. Different methods and tools for risk analysis and evaluation are given. The system’s ability to serve as an unified platform for interdisciplinary research is considered with regard to consolidating researchers with different specialists and individual users that will be able freely to offer information and knowledge exchange. The system is regarded as a Web-based integrated information system that includes a social network site (SNS). The components of the proposed system are defined. Special attention is given to the principles and peculiarities of SNS application to emergency management. General recommendations and the steps for establishing SNS for emergency management are proposed.

Index Terms—Emergency Management, Information System, Natural Disasters, Risk, Social Network Site.
