description: 25th Annual Disaster Response/Data Mining Geospatial Workshop

June 6, 2024

Host: University of Louisiana at Lafayette

The purpose of the workshop is to promote geospatial coordination during hurricane and  other disaster season events (i.e. Wildland fires), to identify points of contact, and to share information about data portals and resources. Presentations will cover coordination related  to hurricane and other disaster season event preparation, emergency response operations, ongoing recovery efforts, and an overview of the data  clearinghouses, applications, and data  acquisitions of federal and state agencies which collect and host geospatial data.
