Join the NSGIC Geospatial Preparedness Group on Wednesday, December 2, at 1:00 p.m. ET for a presentation by NASA on their Disaster Response Coordination System (DRCS).
The DRCS coordinates NASA data and expertise to support emergency responders with insights using the vantage point of space. As a request driven organization, the DRCS works with all levels of government and NGOs to support their response activities during a disaster. DRCS activations provide free and open imagery and derived analyses over broad areas without the need for a disaster declaration. This presentation will highlight how to request DRCS support for your disaster response, the data products and expertise the DRCS can provide, past activation examples, and an overview of the new Disasters PORTAL.
