Pacific Disaster Center - PDC Global
Winner of the U.N. Sasakawa Award, Pacific Disaster Center (PDC Global) is an applied research center managed by the University of Hawaii that supports the most demanding governmental and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) worldwide. For more than 25 years, we’ve helped our partners enhance disaster management capacity, save lives, and reduce disaster losses through the application of advanced tools, evidence-based technologies, big data, research, and analysis. The Center’s DisasterAWARE platform is used by tens of thousands of disaster management practitioners around the globe—providing multi-hazard early warning, hazard monitoring, and risk intelligence to support rapid and effective disaster response, preparedness, recovery, and mitigation. DisasterAWARE includes the highest resolution all-hazards impact modeling, advanced analytical reports, and augmented information through artificial intelligence. It provides the largest, scientifically-vetted big data catalog for disaster management decision making in the world—derived in part from PDC’s unique National Disaster Preparedness Baseline Assessment as well as its Global Risk and Vulnerability data.
