We were delighted to successfully deliver this Emergency Hazard Assessment & Critical Infrastructure Mapping project to our client.
This project was designed to support emergency preparedness and disaster risk management by integrating critical facilities, transportation networks, evacuation buildings, and incident buffer zones into a single geospatial decision-support map for Springfield.

Our workflow involved collecting, processing, and integrating multiple geospatial datasets from reliable sources, including:
📍 Datasets Used
• Road network and transportation data from OpenStreetMap (OSM).
• Hospital, urgent care, fire station, school, and shelter locations from publicly available government and OpenStreetMap datasets.
• Administrative boundary data from official GIS repositories.
• Evacuation building locations categorized by land use and building function.
• Incident locations and spatial buffer zones generated for emergency response analysis.
• High-resolution basemap provided through Esri ArcGIS Online.
