Multi-part hands-on learning exercise in the residential undergraduate GeoDesign Program SSCI 382 Principles of Geographic Information Science. This includes group work in real-time data collection and sharing of critical infrastructure information during hypothetical emergencies. How quickly can we generate and process life-saving data? Is accessing 'Big Data' (planning.lacounty.gov/LARIAC/) viable? The exercise empowers emergency preparedness response focusing on USC campus as a hub of safety.
