Designing an Indonesian Disaster Management Information System with Local Characteristics: A Case Study of Mount Merapi
2021
Effective preparation can help minimize the number
of victims and the amount of damage caused by volcanic
eruptions, as well as facilitate the recovery of
victims’ livelihoods after such disasters. Hence, it is
crucial to coordinate and integrate all stakeholders
in a management information system in which each
stakeholder is interrelated but has different roles and
functions. This paper presents the design of a disaster
management information system (DMIS) with
consideration for the volcano’s location and characteristics.
This includes identifying disaster management
stakeholders and their respective roles and the
volcano’s location and characteristics combined with
accessible databases. To validate the design, the results
of the DMIS calculations of the needs of refugees
from the eruption ofMountMerapi in November 2020
in Kalitengah Lor, Glagaharjo Village, Sleman were
compared with the number of real items distributed
by the government and donors. The results of this
comparison showed that the needs of refugees were
fulfilled at a percentage ranging from 66–99%.
