SBIR Phase I: Increasing community resilience through actionable data and analytics

这个小型企业创新研究(SBIR)第一阶段项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力是使全国各地的应急管理人员、第一反应人员和民选官员能够提高社区在灾难中的韧性，以拯救无数人的生命，拯救关键的关键基础设施，并在灾害期间拯救环境，否则将造成灾难性的后果，其中一些灾害的频率和严重性仍在继续增加。这一小型企业创新研究(SBIR)第一阶段项目开发了一个整合、解释和组织大量相关数据源的平台，以便向灾难前、灾难中和灾难后负责干预的人提供可操作的见解。该项目将实现一个完全集成的、动态的、基于网络的工具，能够为全国范围内的广泛危害生成估计和实时结果，精确到社区级别的粒度。作为一种实时、动态的工具，它将操作人口脆弱性数据，并为急救人员、应急管理人员和民选官员提供前瞻性决策支持和可操作的情报，通过识别灾难期间具有最大需求和最高风险的人口来拯救生命。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to enable emergency managers, first responders, and elected officials across the country to increase community resilience in disaster to save countless lives, save key critical infrastructure, and save the environment from otherwise catastrophic outcomes during disasters, some of which continue to increase in frequency and severity. It will allow for significant advances in protecting our society's most vulnerable populations in disaster.This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project develop a platform to integrate, interpret, and organize a multitude of relevant data sources in order to deliver actionable insights to those responsible for intervention before, during, and after disaster. This project will enable a fully integrated, dynamic web-based tool capable of generating estimated and real-time results for a broad set of hazards across the nation down to the neighborhood level granularity. As a real-time, dynamic tool, it will operationalize population vulnerability data and provide forward-leaning decision support and actionable intelligence to first responders, emergency managers, and elected officials that will save lives by identifying those populations with the greatest needs and highest risk during a disaster.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
