Abstract

Nowadays, with the expansion of industrial activities and the increase of chemical categories and products in counties of China, more and more abrupt air pollution accidents have occurred and seriously influenced the ecological security. It is important to make systematic studies on the emergency management of abrupt air pollution caused by industrial accidents in counties. Limited researches have been made on it in China and it is almost impossible to make early warning and emergency management in time on abrupt air pollution accidents in counties. This paper established an efficient emergency management system on abrupt air pollution caused by industrial accidents in counties of China based on the technology of Geographic Information System (GIS). The design and application of the system was illustrated in this paper. This system will help the companies and governments to inspect abrupt air pollution caused by industrial accidents, make effective emergency response measures, guarantee the public security and develop emergency management and prevention systems on abrupt air pollution accidents in counties of China.
