Abstract

Disaster management is the organization, planning and application of measures preparing for, responding to and recovering from disasters. Disaster response is a complex activity where decision-makers and responders are faced with very demanding challenges. Preparedness is key to effectiveness and efficiency of response. With the increasing technological evolution observed in recent decades gamification gained new fields of application, besides entertainment. Serious games are an example of such applications. A Serious Game is a game designed with a purpose of educating or training the user in a specific domain, namely in disaster management. This paper discusses the initial stages of the development of a serious game aimed at supporting the preparedness of responders in a context of Disaster Management.
