We like to think of it as a Go Kit.

You can have all the plans you want, but unless you test it, you never know.

The Wall Township High School is one, and we are continuing to add places as we go along.

Two other areas where we utilize GIS are HAZMAT incidents (oil spills and affected areas) and Homeland Security. For example, during the Orange Alert following the London bombings, the county's Homeland Security Office and Emergency Operations Center went on 24-hour operations for all commuter transportation.

We then get a better picture of the situation and are able to look at what we have written in our plan.

We got a pretty good pounding on the beach, so that remains to be seen with erosion. But the tide was about a foot and a half above normal, and earlier we were told it could be two to four feet.
