CEOS</a>. The Pilot will improve the ability of key decision makers and responders to discover, manage, access, qualify, share, and exploit location-based information in support of disaster preparedness and response and multi-hazard risk analysis.</p>
<p style="margin-left:.5in">Government agencies worldwide are producing huge streams of observation data, industry is innovating with remarkable analytics and AI tools, and yet common disasters like disease, floods, and wildfires still cause almost unimaginable
social and economic impacts. What is missing? A critical component is that these amazing systems still don’t talk to each other. The whole is less than, not greater than, the sum of the parts. </p>
<p style="margin-left:.5in">With the OGC Disaster Pilot 2021, the response community has the opportunity to put the puzzle pieces together and connect required players in rapid decision loops - from the data providers all the way to the first responders and
decision makers with everyone in between. The Pilot will form a pattern that can be adapted to any disaster, any region, and any combination of data sources and tools.</p>
<p style="margin-left:.5in">The technical scope of the Pilot will revolve around a small set of significant technology trends and related standards:</p>
