Sistema de información basado en herramientas de Google para la centralización de datos de la subdirección de manejo de desastres de la UNGRD

Abstract

The mission of the Sub-Directorate for Disaster Management (SMD), as a strategic and missionary process of the National Unit for Disaster Risk Management of the Presidency of the Republic, is to manage emergency response actions through planning, coordination and monitoring of the National System for Disaster Risk Management (SNGRD), as well as to establish plans and strategies for the preparation of response and recovery from emergencies and/or disasters that may occur in the national territory. According to the above, information management is crucial for the development of the SMD's mission, taking into account that it will be the main input to determine the actions that will be derived in the preparation and execution of the response and recovery to emergencies in the country, where decision making cannot be delayed, taking into account that the purpose is to serve the population, goods, ecosystems and infrastructure of the country.

Currently, the SMD does not have an information system that allows visualizing the data contemplated in each of the SMD management and action lines, in real time and in an organized manner, which are inputs for decision making, since the information is currently decentralized and consolidating it every time it is requested takes time to prepare. According to the above, the development of this work is focused on proposing a design of an Information System supported by Google Workspace tools that allows to visualize in real time through a Web Dashboard the necessary information to plan, generate strategies and make decisions on the preparation and execution of the response and recovery from emergencies and disasters that occur in the country.

According to the above, the agile environment methodology will be implemented through phases that allow the scalability of the system. These include the identification of sources, repositories and reports of information handled by each of the SMD's lines of management and action. Once identified, the next phase comprises the parameterization and characterization of the SMD information, to be loaded into the different Google tools and Google Workspace cloud computing services, where cross-referencing mechanisms and information nodes will be generated to subtract it according to the requirements. Finally, tables and control panels will be designed according to the requirements of senior management, which will be uploaded to the web for viewing on any Smart device that has connectivity, allowing the consultation of information in real time, which is updated by those responsible for each line.
