Abstract

The objective of this work is to propose, at first, a conceptual data model of a Geodatabase dedicated to the disaster management in Algeria. This model highlights the two main components of disasters management: the risk prevention and the response to the disaster, while respecting the 04.20 law (an Algerian law on the prevention of major risks and disaster management in the context of sustainable development). The second part aims to create a WEB-GIS for publishing spatial data corresponding to major risks in Algeria. This solution has been implemented on two cartographic servers (GeoServer and MapServer), a Web server and a spatial database server, all from open source tools.
