Critical Facilities Inventory

A Statewide Geodatabase of

Structures and Facilities

3

What is a Critical Facility?

• Critical Facility - structures from which essential services and functions for victim survival, continuation of public safety actions, and disaster recovery are performed or provided.

4

In Contrast with Critical Infrastructure

• Critical Infrastructure - those systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital that the incapacity or destruction of such systems and assets would have a debilitating impact on security, economy, public health or safety, or any combination of these elements.

5

• The domain of the SERT GIS is specifically related to "critical facilities", while working closely with Florida's Regional Domestic Security Task Forces and other partners to ensure a safe and secure Florida.

6

• Shelters

• Emergency Operation Centers

• Hazardous Material Facilities

• Points of Distribution

• Disaster Recovery Centers

• Logistic Staging Areas

Examples of Critical Facilities…unique to emergency management

7

Examples of Critical Facilities…coordinated with other agencies

• Public Health Facilities

• Public Drinking Water Facilities

• Wastewater Treatment Facilities

• Schools

• Fire Stations

• Police Stations

8

• 13 feature classes are spread across 4 feature datasets, representing emergency management branches – Emergency Services – Human Services– Operations Branch – Infrastructure Branch

9

• Can there be too much data?

– FEMA HAZUS Essential Facilities

– USGS Structures

– NGA Homeland Security Infrastructure Program (HSIP)

“Utilization of the airborne LIDAR data resulted in considerable reduction of predicted flood areas, as a first cut without further refinements and upgrading of the SLOSH numerical model. Broward County Emergency Management officials were able to remove 175,000 people from being unnecessarily evacuated in the event of a hurricane.“http://www.ihc.fiu.edu/lcr/research/windstorm_simulation/airborne_lidar_mapping.htm
