This paper analyzes the structure of an integrated information system, SIGE, supporting civil defense operations in seismic events, designed by the Italian National Seismic Survey and currently under development. The main goal of such a system is to produce real-time tabular reports and operational maps, along with the definition of relevant scenarios, to be used under emergency conditions. The paper analyzes the activities of SIGE (main report, scenarios, damage survey, activities, etc.) during the last Italian earthquake sequence, 26 September 1997 in central Italy (Umbria- Marche).
