DisasterAWARE

In today’s unpredictable risk landscape, protecting buildings, fleets, and other critical assets requires more than awareness—it requires foresight. DisasterAWARE’s Asset Protection capability offers a unified platform to manage assets, monitor threats, and respond with speed and precision.

The platform enables users to:

Add and manage assets such as warehouses, facilities, and vehicles
Receive timely hazard alerts when those assets are threatened
View assets alongside real-time, forecasted, and historical hazard data

It’s a proactive, data-driven approach that keeps your organization prepared.

Adding and Managing Assets in DisasterAWARE

DisasterAWARE simplifies asset integration with two flexible options:

API Integration for real-time syncing from internal systems
Map Service Configuration to automatically poll and update asset data

Whether you start with a spreadsheet or GIS data, the onboarding process is fully supported. Asset layers can be activated in the platform, and users can define buffer zones to tailor alert radii. With ArcGIS authentication and authorization protocol compatibility, your existing permissions remain intact.

Standardized asset classes are defined at group or org level which promotes consistency and streamline cross-team operations.

Real-Time Hazard Notifications for Your Assets

Once assets are uploaded, they’re surrounded by virtual geofences. DisasterAWARE monitors these zones continuously and sends alerts when threats arise.

Customize alerts based on:

Hazard type (e.g., wildfire, tropical storms)
Severity levels
Notification method (Email, SMS, Mobile Push)

Central admins can enforce policies organization-wide, while individuals can opt to personalize preferences. Each alert links directly to real-time hazard intelligence within the platform—ensuring informed action in moments that matter.

A Common Operating Picture for Smarter, Faster Decision-Making

DisasterAWARE integrates asset data with real-time and forecasted hazard intelligence, enabling fast risk assessment and informed decisions to protect operations.

Key features include:

Identify assets in storm paths, wildfire zones, or floodplains
Style assets by type or criticality for at-a-glance risk awareness
Overlay with data like road networks, hospitals, and temperature trends

Exposure Reports: Quantifying Risk to Business Operations

DisasterAWARE auto-generates Exposure Reports during active hazards. These reports map assets against risk zones and quantify potential impact by:

Exposure severity (severe, strong, moderate)
Asset class (such as warehouses, offices, fleet vehicles, etc.)
User-defined impact fields (e.g., employee count, revenue, inventory value)

Reports are delivered by email and available within the app, helping teams prioritize response and communicate with stakeholders during crises.

Notifying Non-Users: Extending Awareness Beyond the Platform

Need to notify contractors or building managers? You can assign non-users to any asset and automate alerts to their inboxes when threats arise. This ensures awareness and coordination—even beyond your DisasterAWARE account.

The non-users might include:

Building managers
Contractors
Delivery drivers
Field personnel
Or any other stakeholders responsible for or operating near critical assets

Bringing It All Together

DisasterAWARE Asset Protection provides features such as asset onboarding, real-time alerts and exposure analysis. This equips organizations to act quickly and confidently when threats emerge. Whether you're safeguarding operations, ensuring business continuity, or protecting lives—DisasterAWARE delivers intelligence when it counts.
