The purpose of illustrating a system architecture for an interactive database to control the consequences of catastrophic events is pursued by a case study: the creation of an interactive database that allows one to monitor the environmental situation of a particular area of the Val Susa Valley (Province of Torino-Italy). It is designed to study the possibility of using a procedure that could help in risk assessment, by an estimate of the vulnerability of a particular node, of the transport network infrastructure, identified in the railroad bridge site located in Pont-Ventoux. For this purpose the phases of the project can be identified as follows: i) Use of high resolution satellite images; ii) Management of information through the use of the software package ArcMAP; iii) Implementation of a Data-Base Dynamic associated with a computer interfaced to the Web tab (GIS dynamic); iv) Structural analysis of the bridge after simulation of a catastrophic event. This study shows that GIS based real time monitoring system can be effectively used to detect and rapid bridge structural control for risk assessment, damage evaluation and crisis management.

Abstract
The purpose of illustrating a system architecture for an interactive database to control the consequences of catastrophic events is pursued by a case study: the creation of an interactive database that allows one to monitor the environmental situation of a particular area of the Val Susa Valley (Province of Torino-Italy). It is designed to study the possibility of using a procedure that could help in risk assessment, by an estimate of the vulnerability of a particular node, of the transport network infrastructure, identified in the railroad bridge site located in Pont-Ventoux. For this purpose the phases of the project can be identified as follows: i) Use of high resolution satellite images; ii) Management of information through the use of the software package ArcMAP; iii) Implementation of a Data-Base Dynamic associated with a computer interfaced to the Web tab (GIS dynamic); iv) Structural analysis of the bridge after simulation of a catastrophic event. This study shows that GIS based real time monitoring system can be effectively used to detect and rapid bridge structural control for risk assessment, damage evaluation and crisis management.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
