Using the Cloud to Strengthen Disaster Recovery and Resilience

When a disaster strikes, the infrastructure needed to support recovery usually is hit hard, as well. Tornados take down cell towers, buildings, tear up roads; floods damage water treatment plants, homes, bridges; wildfires destroy everything in their path. First responders – the people going into harm’s way to save people and property – need as much information as possible about the conditions they will face.

The U.S. Fire Administration, for instance, has created the National Emergency Response Information System “to provide reliable predictive analytics to support enhanced preparedness and response to various incidents, including wildfires, community risk reduction efforts, and future pandemics.”
