Overview Introduction (Jaime) Purpose and Development History (CB) Incident Command Team Environment (Jane) Data Needs (Jane) Answering Questions (Jon) Mapping (Jon) Future Resources (Jaime) Conclusion (Jaime)

DWR Incident Command Structure Consistent with National Incident Management System (NIMS) requirement

Bacon Island Road Incident June 2004 (Jones Tract Flood)

Incident Command Center ICC Planning Meeting California Conservation Corps Crew Reinforces At-Risk Levee Incident Response Activity

Incident Action Plan map created from background image and MS Word graphics Crane mounted on barge places rock to fill the breech

Then (2004) No internet connectivity Limited cell phone coverage Limited computer hardware No GIS software available Data acquired via CD, flashdrive, paper, and phone calls IC planning staff recruited on-the-fly, no advance training Planning Section staff worked 14+ hour shifts to produce daily Incident Action Plan

Now (2012) 3 communication trailers staged to provide instant connectivity ArcGIS pre-installed on dedicated laptops GIS data pre-loaded on hard drives 6 Incident Command Teams formed Periodic readiness exercises Annual GISS training course established DWR Field Operations Guide map symbology updated GISS Standard Operating Guidelines written GISS are ready for the next flood

Overview Introduction (Jaime) Purpose and Development History (CB) Incident Command Team Environment (Jane) Data Needs (Jane) Answering Questions (Jon) Mapping (Jon) Future Resources (Jaime) Conclusion (Jaime)

Flood Fight Data Needs Hydrography California Levee Database Civil boundaries Transportation and Infrastructure Elevation (high resolution) Environmental (sensitive habitats) USGS Topo Maps and NAIP Imagery for basemaps Weather Reports and Tide Tables

Emergency Response GIS Subcommittee meets throughout the year with staff of DWR’s Division of Flood Management
