APEC Presentation: Healing the COP (Common Operating Picture) with AI and APIs for Disaster Management
Among the various mechanisms and tools, we focused on the Common Operational Picture (COP) as a mediation tool that can incorporate novel technologies, such as AI and APIs, and create value for disaster leadership in response to climate variance and data variance. COP is a shared, real-time view of operational data for decision-makers, teams, and agencies involved in multi-agency disaster risk reduction operations. By providing up-to-date information through dashboards and alerts, COP supports situational awareness and coordinated action.
Show-Biz: The Televisual Re-mediation of the Modern Global Economy
Media industries “show” business and finance through various camera, editing, and special effects techniques, drawing in data from many sources and presenting them on different windows of high-resolution screens. These techniques create ways of seeing and showing the economy. Consequently, they influence public opinion as well as investment and trading strategies that shape global, local, and national economic activities and investment patterns.
Digital Spreadsheets as Remediated Technologies
The digital spreadsheet was designed as an electronic document in which data was arranged in the rows and columns of a matrix and could be manipulated and used in calculations. It combined listing, tabling, and other formulaic calculations to create a new imaginative technology that transformed modern finance and the management of organizations – large, and especially the small.
