(TU Delft 3D Geo-Information) Date 2016 Abstract Disaster management is a multidisciplinary field, which requires a general coordination approach as well as specialist approaches. Science and Technology system of a country allows to create policies and execution of technical inputs required which provide services for the specific types of disasters management. Land administration and management agencies, as the administrative and management bodies, focus more on the coordination of designated tasks to various agencies responsible for their dedicated roles. They get help from Scientific and technical inputs & policies which require to be implemented in a professional manner. The paper provides an example of such integration from India where these two systems complement each other with their dedicated services. Delhi, the Capital of India, has such a disaster management system which has lot of technical departments of government which are mandated to provide their services as Emergency Service Functionaries. Thus, it is shown that disaster management is a job which is an integral part of Science & Technology system of a country while being implemented primarily with the help of land administration and management agencies. It is required that new policies or mandates for the Science and technology organizations of government should give a primary space to disaster management Subject Disaster Management, Science &Technology System, Land Administration-Management System, Institutional LinkagesScience &Technology SystemLand Administration-Management SystemInstitutional Linkages To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:c39bf2fc-6ad9-44af-8ac6-2e8a756ad261 DOI https://doi.org/10.5194/isprs-annals-III-8-13-2016 ISSN 2194-9042 Source ISPRS Annals of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, III-8, 13-18 Event XXIII ISPRS Congress, 2016-07-12 → 2016-07-19, Prague, Czech Republic Part of collection Institutional Repository Document type journal article Rights © 2016 Tarun Ghawana, S.
