Question

Geography's new technologies can help us solve problems in many ways. Imagine that you're working for your city's fire department, and you are hoping to find ways to prevent fires in the future. Give at least two examples of how you could use these new technologies to help you meet your goal.

Answer 1

I could use remote sensing to help me look at my city from a new perspective. Using aerial photographs and satellite imagery, I could find buildings that might pose a fire risk. I may be able to see buildings that I might not see as well from the ground. I could also use the Global Positioning System (GPS) to help me find the locations of buildings that are fire risks. By equipping my firefighters with GPS units, I can track their locations when they are in the city and when they are fighting fires. Finally, I can use geographic information systems (GIS) to plot maps of where risky buildings are located. I can predict where fires may happen by looking at patterns in my city.
