WIS CAP Implementers Workshop, 9-10 Dec 2008, WMO Geneva Common Alerting Protocol WIS CAP Implementers Workshop 9-10 December 2008 Global Unique Identifier for Disasters Dr. Tom De Groeve European Commission Joint Research Center Institute for the Protection and the Security of the Citizen Support to External Security (Critech)

Global Unique Disaster ID WIS CAP Implementers Workshop, 9-10 Dec 2008, WMO Geneva Need for ID Aggregating information on a disaster from different providers GDACS: hazard information ReliefWeb: media, government and NGO information UNOSAT: satellite maps USGS, WMO: observation information Tagging your own information to ensure proper dissemination Avoiding ambiguity and confusion Comparing information CRED catalogue DFO flood catalogue USGS earthquake catalogue … Examples Earthquake in China Wenchuan earthquake Sichuan earthquake M7.9? Lat/long? What about aftershocks? What about tsunamis? Cyclones Well identified by names and numbers, but not perfect Hurricane Katrina, Rita, Sidr, Nargis Floods? By river? By country? By province? Zambezi January 2001 Volcanic eruptions Start/end? Periods of increased intensity during long eruption?

Issues Natural hazard versus disasters WIS CAP Implementers Workshop, 9-10 Dec 2008, WMO Geneva Natural hazard versus disasters Earthquakes on Antartica? Cyclones never making landfall? One event for me is two events for you Scientific description of geo/met events “3rd aftershock over 6M” Response to an emergency “Tsunami in Banda Aceh” Funding of an emergency “Floods and landslides after hurricane Stan” A big thing for me is irrelevant for you Traffic accidents Earthquake magnitude 5 Cyclone category I Examples Banda Aceh earthquake and tsunami are a single disaster, including all aftershocks One tsunami can cause more than one disaster One cyclone can affect more than one country

Unique identifier Meaningful Hierarchical Unique Sequential? WIS CAP Implementers Workshop, 9-10 Dec 2008, WMO Geneva Meaningful TC-2008-123456-USA Tropical cyclone 123456 in 2008 affecting United States of America Hierarchical TC-2008-123456 TC-2008-123456-CUB TC-2008-123456-USA-Texas Unique Unambiguous Sequential? ID of an authoritative source (e.g. GLIDE at ADRC) Can it be calculated? If I know some characteristics of the disaster, I want to be able to calculate the ID TC-2007-SIDR-BGL EQ-20081211T10:03:06Z-108.56W-30.45N Disaster type specific Can it be queried? Select, create or update GLIDE for earthquake of M6.7 at 20081211T10:03:06Z on coordinates 108.56W, 30.45N.
