Visual Risk Technologies provides a standard set of databases with all VRiskMAP™
projects. The data is custom-produced for each specific
jurisdiction and includes not only the immediate area but also
surrounding areas. In order to offer the user a detailed coverage of all
critical facilities, lifelines, and infrastructure within the area, the
data is derived from a variety of sources. All applicable databases
include phone number information for contact and notification in the
event of an emergency.
In addition to the provided datasets, VRiskMAP™
can also be used to
display and query any existing ESRI shapefiles maintained by the local
GIS department. Using local data in conjunction with the VRisk data
bundle allows the emergency planner to have access to the most detailed
and up-to-date data available for the jurisdiction. Also, by means of
the VRiskMAP™ interface with Microsoft Access, any Access table with
lat/long coordinates or a physical street address may be used to
incorporate existing information into the mitigation plan.
