I just got back from Dr. Box's house. He had asked us (5 Thai students) to go meeting with him in order to talk over about what we could do to help out in this crisis. We had a conference call with Raju, Dr. Box's ex-student. He has an experience with disaster management in Mississippi and elsewhere.
Raju provided us with some useful information regarding pre- and post-disaster, about supply chain management -- like evaluating how much gas would be provided for evacuation, etc, how we could analyze the data gathered from GIS based application to predict the situation long enough for planning ahead, how to stimulate the economics after the flood, etc.
We will brainstorm and would contact an organization in Thailand if we can come up with anything.
