摘要:With the new advances in computer technology, information management has become easier than ever. Every governmental office has started to develop electronic systems according to their purposes. Hence, e-government has become an important tool in our daily lives. As a result, Turkish government has resolved to provide public services online in accordance with EU targets. As a part of this process, the prime ministry of Turkish republic has chosen Istanbul as a pilot project area where many complex tasks carried out by governmental offices. Since Istanbul has been growing rapidly without proper planning, severe precautions should be taken specifically against natural disasters. Therefore, it has been decided to build immediate natural disaster management information system. The consultancy of this project has been given to Yildiz Technical University (YTU). This project aims to determine the risky areas by geographical analyses before natural disasters. The other goal of this project is to manage an urgent and effective help services during and after the disaster. Before the design of the system, a questionnaire was given to many governmental offices and some other companies which can be possible data sources. After the analysis of the current situation is completed, the data and the data sources have been decided. The designed system is basically divided into two parts namely database design and communications design. The aim of the communication design is data update before disaster and to provide continuity of the data. Consequently a disaster information system is designed according to the standards of e-government which is all ways always up to date. When the system is setup Istanbul is going to be ready to deal with unwanted results of disasters
