Description
Summary:Flood disaster response and recovery attempts need timely interaction and coordination of public emergency services in order to save lives and property ln Malaysia, flood disaster situation is still managed manually through a rnulti-organizational team according to the standard operation procedure for disaster management. Therefore, there is a need to have an automated and integrated system to manage the flood disaster operation efficiently. Without speciEc design principles, the development of flood disaster management system or other similar system will be difficult to accomplish. In this study, several design principles and specifications for the flood disaster management system are suggested. A prototype called Flood Response Operation Management System was developed to verify the design principles. The Perceived Usefulness and Ease of Use questionnaire is used to evaluate user’s acceptance of the prototype. Results showed that majority of the respondents are agreed and satisfied with the prototype.
