Geo-information for Disaster Management

Abstract

In Russia, a Unified System of Emergency Response (RSER) one of the parts of which is Russia’s FAAE Branch System of Emergency Response has been created.

To provide scientific and technical support for the tasks on evaluation of consequences for the environment and the population in case of crisis situation at NPP, in 1996 IBRAE RAS has established the Technical Support Centre (TSC) for the Crisis Centre (CC) of REA Concern. IBRAE RAS TSC is part of the system to render assistance to nuclear power plants in radiation hazardous situations.

Since 1999 a united Technical Crisis Center (TCC) has been operating at IBRAE RAS on a twenty-four hour basis to support the Situation Crisis Center of FAEA (former Minatom) and crisis centers of the Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations (EMERCOM) and Rosenergoatom Concern.

In recent years TCC experts have worked through a number of requests related to real incidents at nuclear-hazardous facilities throughout the world. Within the scope of everyday activity, the check-up of TSC workability is under way through exercises and trainings.

The report represents the examples of practical approbation for the activity of FAAE and CC of REA Concern in their interaction with TSC during the exercises and actual incidents.
