Joe Ausby, GIS Manager for the City of Wilson, NC, gives a presentation on the use of GIS for disaster response. The City of Greenville hosted the inaugural Hurri Up hurricane preparedness event for city and county GIS professionals from across eastern North Carolina today in an effort to provide a way for local government organizations to share geographic information system (GIS) best practices, strategies, insights, and assistance during severe weather-related events such as hurricanes and tornados. GIS technology plays a critical role in emergency management before, during, and after severe weather events. August 28, 2019.

Hawker Hurricane Mk1 R4118
605 (County of Warwick) Squadron at Drem on 17 August 1940. During the Battle of Britain it flew 49 sorties from Croydon and shot down five enemy aircraft.
After being battle damaged on 22 October 1940, the aircraft was rebuilt and taken on charge by 111 Squadron at Dyce on 18 January 1941. There it was flown on patrol over the North Sea and was again in combat. Over the following two years it was used primarily as a training aircraft with 59 and 56 OTUs, and was rebuilt a further three times following major accidents, including hitting a lorry on the runway and being stuffed into a snowbank!
In December 1943, R4118 was crated at Cardiff and shipped to India as a training aircraft. However it was never needed and remained in its packing case in Bombay until 1947 when it was struck off charge and donated to a university for engineering instruction. The fuselage was stood outside in a compound with the propeller, wings and tailplane laid on the ground. There it remained, exposed to the elements and ignored by the world, until 1996, when retired businessman and restoration enthusiast Peter Vacher began his remarkable quest to bring R4118 home.

looking out over the river from Fire Point, at the top of the bluff in the North Unit of Effigy Mounds National Monument, in Iowa
the second island/sandbar with trees has houses which, if you look at this in large format, look to be only about 6 inches from flooding -- and the Mississippi is only slightly higher this year
the river and wetlands are over a mile wide here -- the town of Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, is partially visible on the far side

Magazine Street, Uptown New Orleans. This part of town had hurricane wind damaged, but escaped the Federal Flood that deluged the majority of the city.

A stormy Talisker Bay on Skye. The day was as grey as this looks with the exception of this buoy and what at first I thought was a bollard but is actually a gauntlet. Still, it looked wild and beautiful and Talisker waterfall was in full flow also.

In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina became one of the most destructive storms to ever hit the U.S. In response, NCMEC handled 34,045 calls and helped resolve 5,192 missing child cases.
A major force behind those resolutions were the members of NCMEC’s Team Adam, a group of retired law enforcement volunteers who are deployed in cases of critically missing children. Due to NCMEC’s efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Congress mandated the establishment of the National Emergency Child Locator Center (NECLC), which NCMEC now operates during Presidentially declared disasters at the request of FEMA.
