Abstract
The essential requirements of effective emergency management and response include pertinent information sharing across various government agencies as well as non-governmental and private organizations to assess the situation, identify the needed resources for emergency response and generate response plans. Interoperability is a key requirement for information sharing from disparate systems and organizations, such as the case in emergency response. In this demo, we present the capabilities and features of application to application level information sharing among different incident management systems via DHS-initiated information sharing platform called UICDS (Unified Incident Command and Decision Support).
