In the paper the development of a GIS-based software tool (EPM) supporting local civil protection authorities in Emergency Preparedness and Management is presented. Technological accidents and natural hazards may generate heavy damages for the context where they happen, especially when they are localized in urban areas. The software is developed by considering the need of collecting the appropriate available information sprawled within different geo-databases in hand of several entities when an emergency occurs. This information may support civil protection activities during the emergency to maintain and improve the level of safety and protection of people working within and living around the industry involved in the accident. The use of EPM has been tested on two case studies located in the same area in Lecco town, Italy.
