The reconstruction process that follow such a tragic event need to be planned and tailored on an analysis of the damages to infrastructures and proprieties. Collecting data after floods is necessary not only to verify the request for reimbursements or budget allocations but also to gather knowledge about what factors and artifacts of settlements constitute risk in floods. While specific expertise is needed to assess damages to complex infrastructures, inspection of residential properties can be more repetitive and need a systematic methodology to address the multitude of sites to be inspected and amount of data to be gathered, organized and analysed.

Abstract

Poli-RISPOSTA mobile app is an Android application developed to support the data gathering step of the Poli-RISPOSTA procedure performed after a flood event. Its aim is to digitalize the current paper based approach used by the Italian Civil Protection. The proposed system aims to provide a consistent approach for collecting and storing data and to develop a long-term application solution by providing an environment for analyzing, managing, accessing and reusing information, objects and data. Despite the simplicity of the elements that cause floods, floods constitute a high risk to both rural and urban settlements. As more and more surface gets covered by urban settlement, grounds get less permeable resulting in more water unable to drip to the aquifer and submerging the surface. The main factor to push a growing risk of floods is the growing value of assets built on the lands. The reconstruction process that follow such a tragic event need to be planned and tailored on an analysis of the damages to infrastructures and proprieties. Collecting data after floods is necessary not only to verify the request for reimbursements or budget allocations but also to gather knowledge about what factors and artifacts of settlements constitute risk in floods. While specific expertise is needed to assess damages to complex infrastructures, inspection of residential properties can be more repetitive and need a systematic methodology to address the multitude of sites to be inspected and amount of data to be gathered, organized and analysed.
