DisasterAWARE Enterprise leverages the research, data, and science of disaster risk intelligence developed by the U.S. Pacific Disaster Center. Through the PDC partnership, DisasterAWARE Enterprise is able to deliver precision hazard intelligence and impact assessments used by governments and NGO's around the world.
Exponentially faster at detecting hazards than with manual processes.
Comprehensive, global hazard detection.
Can detect all types of hazards.
Scalable to search an unlimited number of trusted online sources.
DisasterAWARE Enterprise uses sophisticated models to generate predictions and impact assessments from a dozen different data sources.
A strategic goal of PDC is a fully automated, global hazard monitoring and alerting system that requires no human intervention while producing and disseminating additional awareness through graphical and analytical products.
Unlike any global hazard exposure model available today, AIM 3.0 accurately estimates population, capital, and key infrastructure exposure for multiple hazards, as well as specific humanitarian needs down to a scale of
30 x 30 meters.
In 2020, PDC fully operationalized its natural language processing AI program in DisasterAWARE—transforming scientific data from multiple sources into easily-understood hazard descriptions that improve situational awareness and decision making for disaster response.

A tropical cyclone forecast has been issued by National Weather Service (NWS) on September 17, 2020, 09:00:00 GMT. Tropical Cyclone – Sally, is located in the Atlantic Ocean with maximum sustained winds of 165 km/h (105 mph), and wind gusts up to 140 km/h (85 mph). According to this forecast (#25), the cyclone is headed Northeast at about 19 km/h (12 mph), and is expected to remain at this strength over the next 36 hours. It is cautioned, however, that the storm’s actual position may shift significantly over the next few days. Based on the current forecast (the storm’s center and path), Tropical Cyclone Sally will make landfall within the next 24 hours in Alabama (United States) as a Category 2 hurricane, with sustained winds of about 165km/h (105 mph). For the extended forecast, an estimated 2.4 million people, 942,000 households, and $234.5 Billion (USD) of infrastructure are potentially exposed to moderate to severe damaging winds (with damage expected closer to the shores). All shorelines in the path of the storm are exposed to potential storm surge, and inland areas within the proximity of the storm are exposed to potential flooding. Additional updates will be provided as they become available by official sources.

Schedule a DemoThe Pacific Disaster Center (PDC) is a research center within the University of Hawaii that provides disaster management tools and analysis to improve disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. It was established in 1996.
The PDC provides a variety of services including real-time disaster monitoring, forecasting, and analysis through tools like DisasterAWARE. It also conducts research, develops technologies, and provides education/training related to disaster management.
The PDC helps improve disaster preparedness and response by providing early warnings and actionable information to decision makers before, during, and after disasters. Its tools integrate various data streams to give comprehensive analysis. The PDC also develops training programs to educate communities and governments on disaster management.
The key elements of a business continuity plan include conducting a business impact analysis, identifying critical processes and resources, defining recovery strategies, documenting response procedures, assigning roles and responsibilities, assessing risk, integrating continuity into operations, testing the plan, and ensuring ongoing maintenance. The plan should cover prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery.
Best practices include gaining leadership commitment, involving stakeholders across the organization, aligning with business priorities, regularly testing and updating the plan, embedding continuity into day-to-day operations, leveraging technology, addressing cyber risks, securing offsite data backups, cultivating an organizational resilience culture, and ensuring coordination with suppliers and partners. Ongoing training, awareness building, and risk intelligence integration are also critical.
