Overview: One of the main challenges of disaster management concerns to proper management of information. In more details, while most of the information required for disaster management has spatial component or location, current studies show that there are different problems with collection, dissemination, access and usage of spatial data/information for disaster management. It is suggested that Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) as an initiative in spatial data management can facilitate disaster management by providing a better way for managing spatial data. In order to investigate this suggestion, a research project was conducted in Iran. In this research, an SDI conceptual model and a web-based system were developed for disaster management. This paper aims to describe the outcomes of the research project.
