description | On 26 December 2007 until 1 January 2008, flood happened in Surakarta and surrounding
areas. The Public Works Office in Surakarta has taken action to lessen and minimize the
destructive impact of flooding. It is hard to evaluate the effectiveness local government
responses due to flooding, especially when there is no standard method available in that area.
Subjectivity and lack of documentation on what actually happened during flooding also became
challenge for disaster research.
Many aspects influence the government response in flood disaster. The government unit
responses are highly dependent on human resources, financial and legal supports, which
strongly influence the action during flooding.
This research aims to propose a method to study the effect of data availability in disasterresponse
study. This research focused on how to quantify the relation between data availability
and actions taken by decision maker. The more specific topic is represented as disaster response
due to varying data availability using Serious Game method in the Public Works Unit Surakarta.
In this study, held in 2010, researcher started with literature review to the governmental
document and report for flooding in 2007 also historical flood event. Furthermore, a series of
user need assessment was done in Public Works of Surakarta and Balai Besar Wilayah Sungai
Bengawan Solo (BBWS BS) with respect to the usability of spatial data and flood response
activity.
The Serious Game for flood response was build based on real data an involved 34 person from 4
offices in Surakarta to study the relation between responses and data availability. The results for
this serious game were recorded using desktop recorder software to store selected actions and
response behavior of the player during the game.
The serious game provide scenario to gather data about several issues, e.g. the effect of different
information for early warning and information during flooding, Digital elevation model, flood
alert stage decision making, and damage prediction information.
Finally, the serious game result was analyzed by comparing with other method e.g. interview,
user need assessment and literature review to generate conclusion and recommendation which
useful for studying historical flood disaster. This research also could promote as a complement
the other method for collecting data and decision-making training program for flood manager.
The result of analysis has shown that there are differences of responses based on the data
availability. At low availability, the decision makers ask for more information (28 of 66 ~
42,42%) |
