In this general framework, a relevant issue is represented by earthquake early warning and emergency management. This research work presents the investigation and development of a simple and innovative geospatial methodology and related collaborative open source geospatial tools for predicting and mapping the vulnerability to seismic hazard in order to support the response planning to disastrous events. The proposed geospatial methodology and tools have been integrated into an open source collaborative GIS system, designed and developed as an integrated component of an earthquake early warning and emergency management system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/fi4020451","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,7]],"date-time":"2012-05-07T11:16:02Z","timestamp":1336389362000},"page":"451-468","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Collaborative Open Source Geospatial Tools and Maps Supporting the Response Planning to Disastrous Earthquake Events"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"4","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8244-303X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maurizio","family":"Pollino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"UTMEA Technical Unit, Research Centre Casaccia, ENEA-National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development, Rome 00123, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Grazia","family":"Fattoruso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UTTP Technical Unit, Research Centre Portici, ENEA-National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development, Portici (Naples) 80055, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luigi","family":"La Porta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UTMEA Technical Unit, Research Centre Casaccia, ENEA-National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development, Rome 00123, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Antonio Bruno","family":"Della Rocca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UTMEA Technical Unit, Research Centre Casaccia, ENEA-National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development, Rome 00123, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Valentina","family":"James","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Consorzio T.R.E.-Tecnologie per il Recupero Edilizio, Naples 80125, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2007).
