Fighting disasters by working together Time is one of the most crucial factors in emergency situations. Efficient coordination and sharing of information are essential in a multi-disciplinary emergency response. This shared information is known as the Common Operational Picture. A Common Operational Picture can enhance operations, assist in faster and more effective decision making, and control and minimize damage and possibly even save human lives. Eagle Suite for Disaster Management The Eagle suite for Disaster Management, built on top of Microsoft Groove and SharePoint, and using ESRI’s ArcGIS, Geodan Movida and Cyclomedias Cycloramas synchronizes and exchanges geographical and textual information, thus realizing a Single View Platform. Eagle has been successfully tested and evaluated in large scale real-life exercises. Based on the positive evaluations of two exercises Eagle has won the prominent Dutch Public Safety Award 2008 (more information: www.veiligheidaward.nl).
