| What are the advantages of pre-planning? (1) | 1. The planning process allows ENOUGH time to consider ALL contigencies and weigh ALTERNATIVE responses fully. |
| What are the advantages of pre-planning? (2) | 2. Decisions made under non-EM conditions can be made deliberately. Of course, without the stress factors that accompany crisis choices. |
| What should planning include? | It should include: How we maintain situational awareness, and a common operating picture. |
| What does situational awareness describe? | How multiple elements interact, and how that interaction affects what each element is likely to do next. |
| When was situational awareness first used? | By the US military to study large number of variables affecting the cognitive performance of airplane crews. |
| What is the US Navy's definition of situational awareness? | The degree of accuracy by which one's perception of their current environment mirrors reality. |
| What is the HSEM definition of situational awareness? | An accurate perception of what's happening, what happened, and what might or could happen. |
| What does situational awareness require? | Continuous monitoring of relevant sources of information, regarding actual and developing incidents. |
| Critical information is passed.. | Through established reporting channels, according to established security protocols. |
| What are the SA priorities? | Right info to right people at right time. |
| We must continously assess the situation as an incident unfolds and.. | Rapidly provide accurate and accessible information to decision makers in a user friendly manner. |
| It is essential that all levels of government, the private sector and NGOs.. | Share information to develop a common operating picture, synchronize their response operations and resources. |
| Situational awareness begins where? | At the incident scene (LOCAL), and must be effectively communicated to other levels of government and the private sector. |
| Local, state, federal, and tribal governments.. | Have a range of operations centers that monitor events, and provide situational awareness. |
| (Use of Tech Effectively): LSFT governments must use it to work together. It allows HSEM professionals to.. | 1. Predict hazards more quickly with satellites and sensors. 2. Respond more effectively using modeling and GPS. 3. Communicate more fast with smartphones. 4. Coordinate resources more efficiently using critical incident management tools. |
| Tech and HSEM improves.. | 1. Communication and situational awareness. 2. Provides detailed geographic and scientific analysis to inform mitigation efforts. 3. Enables hazard and hazard impacts to be modeled for much better understanding of Prep, Response, and Recovery needs. |
| What is S and T's mission? | To enable efficient, effective, and secure operations across all HSEM missions through the application of: SEAI (anaytic, innovative) approaches to deliver timely solutions, and support departmental acquisitions. |
| What are the 6 primary focus areas of S and T? | 1. First Responders 2. Borders And Maritime Security 3. Cybersecurity 4. Chemical And Biological Warfare 5. Explosives 6. Critical Infrastructure |
| What the DHS S and T do, actually? | They monitor threats, rapidly capitilize on tech advancements, develop solutions, bridge capability gaps at a pace that miirors the speed of life. |
| What could be used as a factor in spreading and maintianing social awareness? | Social Media, duh. |
