The complexity and openness of today'sm odern societies result in the threat of serious cascading effects when natural disasters or terrorist attacks strike.Thus, there is ahigh demand for state of the art IT support in the field of emergency management systems.In this paper,weidentify the core requirements of future emergencymanagement systems and present anew generation of modular,service-oriented and semantic-webbased architecture for emergencymanagement systems.Our emergencymanagement system offers innovative functionality in the context of distributed information sources, collaborative work environments, and consistent situation pictures.
