Abstract

"Two questions were the focus of our research. 1) How were maps used by emergency personnel and by the public during and after Hurricane Andrew? and 2) What kinds of maps were needed during and after the disaster? Interviews were conducted with emergency personnel in the Andrew Disaster Field Office and with hurricane victims in the communities of Goulds, Perrine and Homestead."
