ABSTRACT
Spates, floods and overflows are natural
disasters and anthropogenic character responsible for strong impact on society.
The fact that they have difficult prognosis makes the means of providing for
them is uncertain, passing the condition of hostages to the populations of the
areas affected by these events. Therefore, it is necessary the intervention of
the Humanitarian Logistics in order to ensure emergency aid to victims. One of
the factors responsible for the complexity of acting Humanitarian Logistics is
the prevention of disasters through the flow of information and communications.
As a possible solution, are used the rainfall monitoring systems to control
water levels. Thus, the aim of this paper was to develop a rainfall monitoring
system called Nimbusdroid the Rochdale
neighborhood, which emphasizes the high number of incidence of these disasters.
In metodological terms, bibliographical research had
been used for the constitution of the theoretical basement, followed of a study
of case in the quarter of the Rochdale. . As its focus, it is a
qualitative and quantitative research .According to the method of
approach is deductive research. Not only used in the monitoring water levels,
the Nimbusdroid system forwards messages and supplies
information to the applicatory site and of the same in form of alert in real
time. When compared with the ALERT SMS – rainfall monitoring installed
in the Osasco city - Nimbusdroid system has
advantages in its functionality, a time that the ALERT SMS is unknown and requires a prior
registration, different of Nimbusdroid.
1. INTRODUCTION
One
of main historical landmarks of the 18th century in Brazil was the industrialization (SANDORI, 1989). This
process was not only distinguished as a transforming period of the country’s
economy, but also as cause of changes of the use of the ground. With the
absence of an urban planning, the use of the ground grew of sped up and
disordered form resulting in one of the biggest current urban problems of the
great Brazilian cities (KAYRTON, 2010).
With the problems of
balance between the increasing population demand and the bad planning of the
division of the destined spaces the habitacional
occupation, the population is influenced to search local to the housing,
causing to the citizens the condition of hostages in the majority of the
regions of the country disfavored and inappropriate, over all to those deriving
ones of the regions poor. The increase in the unplanned urbanization and
devastating occupation of the geographical space, causing problems that affect
the social and economic dynamics in the national scope, and generate
consequences such as: spates, floods and overflows (KAYRTON, 2010).
The
occurrences of spates, floods and overflows has natural and anthropogenic
character, the latter being the main of typology in Brazilian
events, had to the bad use of the ground on the part of the man. However, such
events are only interpreted as natural disasters
(earthquakes, volcanoes and hurricanes), since
the predictions are complex and require preventive actions of the Government
(KAYRTON, 2010).
Such
panorama more reflects the lack of planning in the urbanization, becoming more
comfortable the attempt of these typological disasters (KAYRTON, 2010). When relates these facts
the numbers, the situation becomes even more aggravating: only in the last
decade, spates, floods and overflows in
Brazil had resulted in 4,5 million victims, having been 1,2 a thousand
fatal (BANDEIRA; CAMPOS; BANDEIRA, 2011).
In order to minimize the
damages and impacts caused by emergency catastrophes becomes necessary a
specific management in disasters. This management can be divided in three
phases: daily pre-disaster, disaster and post-disaster. The preparation phase
of disaster is considered by the Civil Defense as the most important step of
whole (or all) process, therefore it has as objective to develop projects that provide
an increased capacity to emergency cases and the reduction of victims, considering a logistic support (CIVIL DEFENSE,
2000).
Social care procedures
count on a wide chain of humanitarian assistance where the logistic is a
critical aspect for the success of an operation of this size, given that 90% of
the efforts of a disaster mitigation operation for logistic activities. The
area of the logistic related to natural or emergency disasters is known as
Humanitarian Logistics (TRUNICK, 2005). Composed of systems and procedures, it mobilizes financial, human
resources and information as aid to the victims of natural and anthropogenic
disasters or emergency character (MEIRIM, 2006).
Humanitarian Logistics
also operates on prevention: with intention to brighten up the shakes of the
considerable number of victims, using both rainfall and
seismological monitoring systems that together
with the means of communication and dissemination indicate the regions that
might be affected. To receive correct information, the potential victims (those that possess greater probability to be
affected) would not result in effective victims (DAY; JUNGLAS and SILVA, 2009).
Within this context, an example to be cited is the
Borough of Rochdale, located in the North region of
the Osasco City, next to
the edges of the Tietê River. The high
rainfall, the lack of adequate infrastructure, the disordered urban growth and
the absence of appropriate Ribeirão Vermelho stream pipes are the main reasons of frequent spates, floods and
overflows in the neighborhood.
In
order to increase the flow of information to the residents of the quarter of Rochdale, the Civil Defense of Osasco monitors the water
levels of drainage channels with a rainfall monitoring system called ALERT SMS.
After the monitoring, Civil Defense organizes the information and sends alert
messages from mobile phones on the risk of overflow and flooding in the
critical points of the region. However, to receive such alert messages it is
necessary to perform a registration form in person in the Civil
Defense of Osasco (PERES,
2014).
For
lack of information on the functioning and even on the existence of ALERT SMS
system, the majority of the population of the Rochdale
does not usufruct the right to receive the alert messages. How much lesser it
is the information given to the inhabitants, more complex is the performance of
the Logistic Humanitarian, since it increases the number of victims.
Ahead of this scene,
appeared the following questioning: it is possible to create a system of alternative
rainfall monitoring system and to develop an
application available for computers
and mobile devices with alert of spates, floods and overflows in real time to
the population of Rochdale? The secondary questions
if guided in: the change of systems and information flows would contribute to
that the population could move in a manner and with necessary time, adjusted
preventively, to avoid situations of vital risks and property damages? What are
the benefits presented by the new system?
This article aims to
develop the rainfall monitoring system and the application "Nimbusdroid" for
computers and mobile devices mobile and devices so that the population of Rochdale is alerted with the operating time required to
appropriate arrangements. Furthermore, this
article aims at to report on the feasibility and benefits in change for
the systems and rainfall information flow.
2. THEORETICAL EMBASAMENT
2.1.
Humanitarian
Logistics
Humanitarian Logistics
can be understood as a set formed for the planning processes, implementation
and control of the efficient and efficient flow of items from the point of
origin to the consumption point, evaluating the effect of vulnerable persons
(THOMAS; KOPCZAK, 2007). Furthermore, Humanitarian Logistics becomes responsible
for the planning, tracking, transport, supply, tracking and customs
disembarrassment as responses to disasters (KOVACS; SPENS, 2007).
For Kovács
and Spens (2007), Humanitarian Logistics deals with
various types of natural disasters, such as terrorist earthquakes, hurricanes,
tsunamis, terrorist attacks, wars, floods, overflows or even related the
epidemics, droughts and famine. In this manner, it should be noted that the
events could be either natural or created by the human being.
The different actors and
their interactions on humanitarian supply chain, the unpredictability in the
occurrence of the disaster and the lack of foresight on demand make the
logistic system of complex humanitarian aid (VALBUENA; RODRÍGUEZ, 2011).
When
respect to the organizations of humanitarian aid is said, has its initial
landmark when foreseeing the size of the critical and importance of the
management chain on the success of the operations of aid to the victims. Being
about the answers to the catastrophes in the chain of humanitarian aid, one
notices that its main objective is to supply information quickly, what it
guarantees the success of the operations of aid to the victims (WASSENHOVE,
2006).
a) Information and
Communication Technologies in Humanitarian Logistics.
One of
the current challenges of the Humanitarian Logistics is to use information
technology as mitigating the effects of disasters, a time that the
technological investments in the area are scarce. Such panorama justifies due
the limitation of financial resources and the complexity in the flow of
information of the events, mainly of unexpected character (SILVA, 2011).
Humanitarian
Logistics is present in disaster management. Especially in the disaster, the
predecessor to stage logistics planning is extremely important for the
development and implementation of preventive measures and, especially, for
evacuation plans in case it is possible to monitor the evolution of the
phenomenon (KOVÁCS; SPENS, 2007).
At the
time (or moment) of occurrence of the disaster, the Information and
Communication Technologies – ITCs is tools used in the mitigation of the event
(MUBARAKA; KALULU; SALISU, 2013). ITCs are used with intention to foresee
meteorological catastrophes, in order to minimize possible damages and losses
(MOMO; SILVA; SEEVERO, 2010).
With the
improvement of the capacity for rapid response, ITC assists in the
communication of information, what it significantly influences in the reduction
of victims, alerting the population of risk areas (MUBARAKA; KALULU; SALISU,
2013).
For
Mubaraka, Kalulu and Salisu (2013), ITC increases in the increase in
reliability of information in emergency situations, preventing old conflicts
for discrepantes and not collected information in real time. Besides, as one of
the main benefits of ITC, the information generated through the disasters can
be stored in database or virtual libraries, serving as a basis for future
responses, improving the management capacity of the next disasters.
2.2.
Disasters
The
disasters are generated through the relationship between natural phenomena that
present some type of danger - earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis and certain
socioeconomic and physical conditions with a high degree of vulnerability,
since precarious economic situations and unstable soils the houses built
precariously and in bad locations. The high risks of one or more dangerous
phenomena are associated with emergency situations (ROMERO; MASKEY, 1983).
The
disasters can be classified in several forms, according to their nature and
their development as shown in table 1:
Table 1: Disasters typology.

Avalanches, spates, volcanic

(2006), Kayrton (2010) and Gallego
and Viñas (2011)
An annual
average of 250 million people is affected periodically by natural disasters. Of
all the worldwide population exposed to natural threats, 54% of the deaths live
in countries with Low Human Development Index (HDI), while the countries of
high HDI shelter 15% of the population exposed to natural threats, adding the
balance of 1.8% of mortal victims.
These
data can be considered extremely alarming; however, do not reflect the real
impacts that a disaster means in the life of people affected, in the economy,
the ways of subsistence, the countries with low IDH that has few possibilities
of recovery (OIT, 2016).
Beamon
and Balcik (2008) affirm that in the disaster context, under the logistical
function of view, it is essential to ensuring delivery of materials, human
resources and information efficiently to assist emergency victims.
a)
Disasters in Brazil
In
Brazil, the disasters follow a regional pattern, illustrated in figure 1:
Figure 1: Types of disasters in Brazilian regions
Source: Adapted of Silva apud
National Secretariat of Civil Defense (2011)
Moreira
(2012) corroborates with Silva (2011) when affirming that the Brazilian
disasters are recent and recurrent of the lack or excess of water: flooding,
collapses of hillsides where there is human occupation or prolonged droughts.
2.3.
Spates,
floods and overflows
The
spates are phenomena that occur periodically due to intense rains with the
temporary increase of the volume of water in drainage channels, with the
determining factor soil conditions. When
drainage channels do not carry the increased volume of water overflow occurs,
reaching lowland regions and marginal areas. This extra emptying of waters
drainage channels is known as floods (BRAZIL, 2007; BISPO; LEVINO, 2011). The
problems of drainage and seepage can also hit streets and urban centers, this
phenomenon is known as overflow (BRAZIL, 2007). The figure 2 depicts the three
types of phenomena:

and overflows

3. METHODOLOGY
For the
accomplishment of this paper, was adopted the deductive method, once used the
words of Galliano (1979, P. 39) “the deduction consists of taking off a truth
particular of a general truth in which it is implied”. According to the author,
the deductive research also consists of affirming that this type of reasoning
is considerably applicable when part of the known into the unknown with a low
margin of error, as long as they respect the criteria of coherence and
contradiction (GALLIANO, 1979).
The research
classifies as qualitative and quantitative about its focus. Sampieri, Collado
and Lucio (2013) affirm that the mixing methods of research promote an
integration of the quantitative and qualitative methods. Such union generates a
more complete view of the phenomena studied. As to its nature, the survey ranks
applied, as Rodrigues (2005), the applied research produces real knowledge and
with a practical application.
As for to
the technical procedures were employed two methods: a bibliographical research,
using primary and secondary sources like newspaper articles, magazines,
conference proceedings, dissertations and theses (LAKATOS; MARCONI, 2009). It
was also a case study in employee neighborhood Rochdale. The case study method
is characterized "by the deep and comprehensive study of one or a few
objects, in a way that allows large and detailed knowledge" (RODRIGUES,
2005, P. 40).
4. CASE STUDY: NEIGHBORHOOD ROCHDALE
4.1.
Historical
and geographical context
Neighborhood
Rochdale is located in the North region of the Osasco city, however before
becoming neighborhood, this was just a great place that belongs to a group of
businessmen, bank directors and Commissioners of the coffee that aimed to build
cooperatives in this area with about of 1,250 square kilometers (PERES, 2014).
Nevertheless,
in late 1940, the Tietê River underwent a rectification work in an attempt to
reduce flooding, spates and also with the purpose to fill the intricacies,
which are described by a sinuosity course of the Tietê River (MENECOZI, 2015).
After the
rectification of this region, located in the field for cooperatives, it was
termed as dead arm of the Tietê River resulting from the diversion of course,
this being the problem of future spates, floods and overflows in the region
(PERES, 2014).
The consolidation of the neighborhood occurred
in the 1970 and 1980 owing to the completion of the River meanders, modifying
then the configuration of the edges and giving origin to the housings, of
irregular characteristics, the workers who acted in the cooperatives.
Entrepreneurs provided batch plants and financed the construction materials in
installments that were being paid over time by workers, which benefited 174
families at the time.
This
process gave beginning to a wild urbanization to the edges of the river, shown
in the figure 3, these being the areas more prone to flooding because they are
located in a region that should be fully open by being lowland areas (region
for flood during the full ones) of the Tietê River itself, which explains the
reason of spates and, therefore, floods and overflows in place (PERES, 2014).
The figures 3 and 4 illustrate the described situation above.

Figure 4: Aerial Photo of Rochdale
from 2013 Source: Peres (2014) |
Due to
the huge history of spates, floods and overflows, the neighborhood Rochdale is
considered a risk region the local population for years (GOMES, 2012). The
residents, for lack of knowledge and information on how to proceed in cases of
floods and overflows, end up climbing walls in an attempt to escape the waters.
However, many physical structures are damaged in these emergency events, increasing
the number of victims (DONIZETE, 2014).
In early
2015 a intense rain reached all the city of São Paulo and part of its region
metropolitan: the neighborhood Rochdale was considered the most wronged, being
one of the hardest hit (G1, 2015).
4.2.
The
functioning of pluviometry Alert Sms system
In order
to predict potential disasters featured in the neighborhood, the Civil Defense
has developed a rainfall monitoring system with the aim of alerting the
population at risk of spates, floods and overflows. This system known as ALERT
SMS sends text messages with one hour in advance to residents of areas of risk
alerting the increase in rainfall in the region. For sending these messages,
the Civil Defense uses water meters called Lighthouses, located in the gutters of
the rivers (PERES, 2014)
To
receive these informative messages, it is necessary that the residents are
registered in the Civil Defense System. To register, the interested citizen
must heading the Civil Defense of the city of Osasco and provide your personal
information, including phone number, being this the main information for the
registration is performed correctly. Without the record attendance at
preventive programme for Civil Defense and with no other source of information,
the residents of the district back to the hostage of etching disasters in the
region (PERES, 2014).
5. THE CREATION OF NIMBUSDROID MONITORING SYSTEM
The term
“Nimbus” comes from the Latin in which it means cloud. The clouds are thick and
are approximately 2000 meters high, however, scrap in rain, main event
responsible for spates, floods and overflows (MARTINS apud HOWARD, 2016). In
this case, Nimbus is the first part of the name of the system created and
proposed as a preventive tool reported in this paper. The second part of the
name, the suffix of the word Android: "droid", to compose the theme.
Lecheta (2013) sets the Android as a system designed for mobile devices. In the
proposed system, a means of communication with the community is accomplished
through an application to the Androids, justifying the Nimbusdroid name.
5.1.
The
functioning of the system
The
premise of the Nimbusdroid system is to provide in skillful time the
information gathered by ground-based equipment to the local population. The equipment is installed in the edge of the
drainage channel or in some local considered critical/strategic, in which it is
possible to monitor rainfall levels.
The
equipment has a central structure responsible for the water level sensor,
measuring and collecting information autonomously to feed the database 24 hours
a day. The stems are aluminum structures or equivalent material to support the
equipment and maintain the level sensor vertically positioned relative to a
flat surface.
The CASE
it is a rectangular plastic box of remote system which has sufficient capacity
to accommodate all necessary components for the functioning of the equipment.
Among its objectives are: to send the messages generated by the water level
sensor, ensure the necessary resource to feed energy equipment, provide
internet access and trigger sound and light alarms. At the top of the equipment
are located the alarms responsible for alerting the local community through the
shooting of an audible and visual alarm. In Figure 5 are identified in more
detail the locations of the parts of the equipment:
Figure 5: Side view of Nimbusdoid
equipment
Source: Elaborated for the authors (2016)
The
system works regardless of whether it rains or not, the sensor checks the
centimeters of water since there are other secondary factors to occur flood
drainage channels. However, rain is the main cause of the spates and floods and
overflows. The CASE will convert the centimeters into information, as shown in
figure 6, where, for representative purposes, were adopted as parameters the
centimeters illustrated in picture, however every drainage channel or critical
site reaches different levels in centimeters corresponding to their risk,
Nimbusdroid system also enables new standardization of centimeters, according
to the real need of place to be deployed.
Figure 6: Vision of data conversion in system
information
Source: Elaborated for the authors (2016)
The converted
data in information is sent to a database, so that these aid in the control and
understanding of present and future emergency events.
Similar
to ALERT SMS system, Nimbusdroid system provides information and dispatches
them to the numbers of registered phones, however the system created provides
users with two ways of interaction in addition to sending messages: the site
and the Android application. The site features information on two conditions:
the water level and the type of behavior of the place where it is represented
by the colors green (normal), yellow (alert), Orange (medium risk situation)
and Red (high risk situation). The
Nimbusdroid application provides the same information. What differs is that the
application when fired maintains a constant connection with the site without
the need of an internet browser, however access to information on the site can
be accessed via any browser type in a mobile device, shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7: The functioning of Nimbusdroid
application on a mobile device
Source: Elaborated for the authors (2016)
The
Nimbusdroid system offers six main use cases: monitor water levels; connect
with the telephony network; Press audio/visual alarm; feed the database;
dispatch messages and maintain direct contact with the system administrator.
5.2.

Therefore,
ALERT SMS and Nimbusdroid have their own characteristics in which can be
considered to be advantages and disadvantages. However according to table 2, it
has been possible to ascertain that the Nimbusdroid system has a more effective
action in the flow of information, since it also has other means of alert as
audio/visual alarms.
6. FINAL CONCLUSIONS
In
accordance to the fact that several people are struck by spates, floods and
overflows, the area of the Humanitarian Logistics has its lead role in aid of
the victims of these events. In this context, this area also operates in the
preventive phase so that these disasters, natural and anthropogenic
characterized, not affect so devastating to the population.
For such,
the rainfall monitoring systems are one of the preventive measures of Civil
defence as a tool to aid to people who live and circulating in areas of risk of
spates, floods and overflows. The Civil Defense of the Osasco - city this
characterized by its high rates of occurrence of these disasters, having as has
detached neighborhood Rochdale - possess ALERT SMS in order to control the
water levels and to send text messages to residents of the region as a alert.
To gain
access to messages sent by ALERT SMS, it is necessary the displacement of the
resident to the city Civil Defense to perform your record. However, from the
point of view of the residents and merchants of Rochdale, the majority is
unaware of the existence of the system and the expert of this minority is not
registered, so do not get preventive messages.
The
deployment of a system that works by means of website and application without
the need to record attendance and to inform in real time water levels and their
respective degrees of risk are factors that fostered the creation of the
Nimbusdroid system for better control and greater spread of alert the local
population. Besides the Nimbusdroid system also provides audio/visual alerts
coming sirens installed in your equipment.
The study
achieved its objectives fully, as proposed, providing subsidies on the possible
benefits in exchange between ALERT SMS and the Nimbusdroid. Thus, the
implementation of Nimbusdroid would help mitigate the number of victims and the
financial resources generated by the lack of information and communication of
these disasters, reducing the complexity of the flow and storage of
information. When storing the information, these serve as a basis for future
events, as this point is one of the greatest challenges of the Humanitarian
Logistics today.
