The management of the emergencies requires an immediate availability of information and data from the field, like those acquired from monitoring and alerting sensors or, after a disastrous event, the information of the reconnaissance of damage. For this purpose, an integrated DBMS-GIS system has been developed, using exclusively free and open source software, to dynamically create and populate via Web a spatial database. In particular, assuming that more teams draw up an inventory of the damage, we highlight the benefits of a real-time transmission of the information collected from the field to headquarters. The approach has been successfully tested in the management of the navigation of an autonomous robot, assigning the optimal path and mapping its trajectories and all data acquired.

Abstract
The management of the emergencies requires an immediate availability of information and data from the field, like those acquired from monitoring and alerting sensors or, after a disastrous event, the information of the reconnaissance of damage. For this purpose, an integrated DBMS-GIS system has been developed, using exclusively free and open source software, to dynamically create and populate via Web a spatial database. In particular, assuming that more teams draw up an inventory of the damage, we highlight the benefits of a real-time transmission of the information collected from the field to headquarters. The approach has been successfully tested in the management of the navigation of an autonomous robot, assigning the optimal path and mapping its trajectories and all data acquired.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
