Resource Typing System
| Resource typing definitions provide
emergency managers with the information they need to request and
receive the resources they need during an emergency or disaster.
Typed definitions for 120 response resources have been completed.
Like the Glossary, the Resource Typing Definitions will be continuously
updated, revised, and expanded.
Eight groups representing key functional disciplines consisting of federal, state and local specialists were part of the effort to develop the definitions. Resources are classified by ‘Category’ which refers to function and ‘Kind,’ to include teams, personnel, equipment, and supplies. Information about level of capability is referred to as ‘Type,’ which is a measure of minimum capabilities to perform the function. Type I implies a higher capability than Type II. The metrics shown for each resource are measurements of standards and are applicable to like resources.- The NIC |
