This is a slide borrowed from the UN – depicting the numbers and organic ways in which humanitarian assistance and first response organizations may interact in a generic disaster scenario. Problem Statement Information sharing across organizations in current humanitarian assistance/disaster relief efforts is impeded by a lack of interoperability. Diverse information and knowledge are widely distributed and owned by different organizations. Information & data are maintained in systems with widely differing architectures and data models. Standards do not exist across resources so they may be efficiently organized and utilized during HA/DR operations.
Microsoft is leveraging core competencies and acquired knowledge across 3 main categories: Collaboration, Training/Learning, and Assessment. These competencies of course stem from our technology development, products, and internal best practices – our goal is to communicate, adapt and share these with the public sector where appropriate.
This is a web portal solution – the customer already owned the technology – Microsoft and its partners accelerated deployment pro-bono to address the Myanmar disaster and UN/Humanitarian Assistance community coordination efforts.

Microsoft seeks to play a discreet role in contributing to and/or enabling Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster First Responders through its Citizenship efforts. Microsoft adopts this principle as a core tenet & value in all disaster incident response work.
HIC Home Page snapshot: Use if internet connection unavailable or down. Focus on HIC concept and how it has been enabled by the technology. The goal is to create an HIC out-of-box experience to enable future disasters so: experience is more predictable and expeditious core users and NGO communities may be trained in advance historical information may be captured and carried forward for analysis , study, and contingency planning purposes. Microsoft does not market against its citizenship work to sell products, solutions nor to promote our brand or business partners.

Use if internet connection unavailable or down. GIS Mapping is a critical feature for first response. Tracking Who, What, and Where is greatly facilitated through “interactive” mapping, visualization, and filtering capabilities (map overlays).

How do we approach learning in a synthetic [simulated] environment to achieve a specific, defined set of learning objectives? Requirements Based on disaster management & mobilization Informed by real case studies, simulated scenario(s) that challenge players to understand & solve relevant problems Context must be realistic, organizational & situational
