Abstract

Management procedures in general, and disaster management in particular, depend on information. The central questions are however, which information is necessary in order to draw for a particular decision, when is this information needed and at which resolution it is required. “Resolution” in this context is defined as the “level of detail”. Quality of management is thus directly related to the quality of information.
