MITIGATION WATCH GIS

Mitigation Watch GIS

Mitigation Watch is a GIS-based Module of the iSmart System that is used for pre-disaster planning to:

  1. Identify Hazards and Risks due to a particular event or disaster
  2. Provide the tools for the Agency for their plans & programs to address the identified hazards and risks so as to reduce its effects.
  3. Monitor Mitigation Plans and Programs to see its effectiveness over time.
  4. To provide Reports as needed by the Agency on its Mitigation measures.

Identification of HAZARDS & RISKS and its Historical Data

Identification of Hazards & Risk and its Historical Data

  1. Flood Prone Areas
  2. Liquefaction Areas
  3. Fire Prone Areas
  4. Crime Prone Areas
  5. Chemical Hazards
  6. Earthquake Fault Lines
  7. Landslide Prone Areas
  8. Other Hazards and Risks unique to the area

Historical data of Typhoons, El Nino, Floods, Volcanic eruptions, Earthquakes, and other incidents for 5 years or more as a basis for disaster planning.

Provides tools for the Creation of Plans & Programs to reduce the effect of disaster

The following Plans & Programs can be conducted: 

  1. Tree Planting to mitigate flooding and landslide
  2. Clean-up of Sewerages, Canals, River and Creeks
  3. Inspection of Hazardous buildings
  4. Fire Safety Inspection
  5. Construction of dikes to divert water flow to river and creeks
  6. And other measures to mitigate disasters unique to the Agency’s territorial coverage.

Monitor the Plans & Programs to reduce the effects of disasters and check its progress
