ABSTRACT Emergency planning and management is the last level of the defense in depth approach for nuclear safety. Coordinated efforts are essential to ensure effective response thereby ensuring safety of public and environment. With the rapid growth and development in mapping technology, the role of Geographic Information System (GIS) is gaining more importance in the response and recovery of a disaster. The capability of GIS to integrate spatial information along with site specific information strengthens the emergency planning. This paper demonstrates a GIS based decision support system combining spatial data and atmospheric dispersion modelling to provide a real time support for nuclear emergency management. |
