Preferred term

early warning and prediction systems  

Definition

  • Early warning is a major part of risk and disaster management. The ability to manage emergencies, rather than merely react to crises, is critically dependent on the availability and flow of real-time information that is linked through a variety of information networks, both formal and informal.
