Concurrently, the 3rd annual National Geospatial Preparedness Summit, held 7-9 August 2017 at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, brought together more than 215 public safety and homeland security leaders, first responders, and GIS professional representing 39 states and 120 agencies. The summit was coordinated in coordination with the US Department of Homeland Security, International Association of Fire Chiefs, International Association of Emergency Managers, National Association for Search and Rescue, the National States Geographic Information Council, the Naval Post-Graduate School’s Center for Homeland Defense and Security, and other partner organizations.

峰会是唯一致力于推进我们国家第一响应者使用地理空间信息系统技术和数据的国家培训和准备练习论坛。This year’s programming featured hands-on technical GIS training on the latest technology and analytics, a tabletop exercise focused around a complex coordinated attach scenario, keynote speakers from leading local and national agencies, and numerous workshops on issues ranging from damage assessment processes to emerging technologies. The summit culminated with a one-day functional preparedness exercise based on a real-world flood scenario.
