An ArcServer-based situation awareness tool was developed to connect spatially referenced data from a variety of disjointed sources. The situation awareness tool was designed to allow National Weather Service staff to view and analyze the impacts of weather-related disasters on communities in the NWS Central Region, as well as monitor the operational status of the NWS Central Region field offices. Information is presented in a practical, easy to navigate and visually explicit manner that is not available in any other presentation to date. A storm damage logging application was developed that can be deployed to a GPS-enabled smart phone or similar mobile device. This damage logging tool will demonstrate that a cost-effective approach to collecting time-critical storm damage data can be seamlessly integrated into a server GIS infrastructure.
