Taxonomy: Government Emergency Operations Centers

Protected sites established by federal, state, county or city authorities or other local jurisdictions, often in cooperation with private entities, that are used for the centralized direction and coordination of emergency services during a major disaster. Government disaster operations centers maintain vital facilities, services and communications and take whatever actions are necessary to minimize casualties and loss or damage to property during and after the incident and to facilitate the community's ability to recover.
