Abstract

Organizations and individuals have been facing disasters globally and locally since hundreds of years. Increasing number of natural disasters has demonstrated the paramount importance of the natural hazards subject for the protection of environment and the citizens. Now more than ever, designing an efficient traffic system, moving vast amounts of helping goods quickly and safely across great distances is one of our most pressing needs. Satellite navigation systems are changing the way in which we travel from place to place whether by land, sea or air and whether in remote areas or through congested city streets. Global positioning system (GPS) and its role in advanced transportation projects is inseparable and become a synonym. The management and operations of vehicles and giving real-time information to users that will lead to cost-effective and satisfied service to passengers is possible nowadays using a GPS based vehicle navigation system and communication via remote sensing. This paper describes how the already developed fleet management and remote sensing technologies can be merged together to form an efficient disaster management system

用于紧急车辆导航和通信的GPS和遥感

数百年来，组织和个人一直面临着全球性和地方性的灾难。越来越多的自然灾害表明了自然灾害主体对保护环境和保护公民的重要性。现在比以往任何时候，设计一个高效的交通系统，快速、安全地在很远的距离上运送大量的救援物资是我们最迫切的需求之一。卫星导航系统正在改变我们从一个地方到另一个地方的旅行方式，无论是通过陆地、海洋还是空中，无论是在偏远地区还是在拥挤的城市街道上。全球定位系统(GPS)与其在先进交通工程中的作用是分不开的，并成为一个代名词。如今，使用基于GPS的车辆导航系统和通过遥感进行通信，可以对车辆进行管理和操作，并向用户提供实时信息，从而为乘客提供具有成本效益和满意的服务。本文介绍了如何将现有的船队管理技术与遥感技术相结合，形成一个高效的灾害管理系统
