Pacific Disaster Center

Abstract

The PDC has provided operational support for an (unclassified) integrated multi-hazard monitoring, early warning and decision support system, called RAPIDS, for the department since 2007. The system is frequently used by COCOMS, particularly INDOPACOM and SOUTHCOM, for HA/DR missions and exercises, and was recently selected as one of the most effective systems in a position paper by the department, reviewing all unclassified information sharing systems. “Expanded use of RAPIDS across the DoD at the Combatant Commands, Joint Task Force, and by deployed units from the services” was identified as ”a primary Joint Staff objective” in a memorandum dated July 6, 2017. RAPIDS is also regularly used at the National Guard Bureau Joint Operations Center for monitoring events and crises of interest.
