| Description | The research presented in this paper is part of the project called Dynamic Geovisualization in Crisis Management, focused on the use of existing data, verification of the datas timeliness and integrity, analysis of the datas qualitative features, interpretation, presentation and implementation of its accessibility to the users who are crisis management personnel. The paper revolves around contextual visualisation that is designed, above all, for the regional Operational and Informational Centre of Integrated Rescue System. The goal is to offer maps in a form and structure that leads to a higher efficiency and a clearer communication process between the dispatching and rescue squads. The system of map keys consists of topography in four versions and two thematic contexts (one for monitoring and one for the incident). The topography is designed to be used in all crisis situations that are defined by the National Security Council. The thematic content aims to monitor the transport of dangerous goods. |
