| dc.description.abstract | The Swiss law on the protection of the environment requires the companies handling dangerous substances and microorganisms to give specific information about hazards, risks and safety measures to the inspectorates enforcing the regulations. In the Canton of Basel-Stadt the inspectorate KCB of the Cantonal Laboratory summaries this information into a SQL-database called RIKA (Risk Information Register). For the visualisation and geographical referencing of risk data from facilities with dangerous substances and microorganisms, GRIBS2, an Intranet-GIS-based and browser-supported software, was created. GRIBS2 reads and interpretes risk data through a direct interaction with our SQL-database and links this information into the local geographical context. Furthermore, specific queries allow the search of information in different map layers of environmental and technological topics. GRIBS2 as an interactive tool supports the preparation of inspections by the KCB authorities and serves as an information platform in case of a major accident to support the emergency services such as fire brigades or police. Furthermore, a web-based version of GRIBS2 will soon be implemented and made available for other cantonal administration units involved e.g. in land use planning. The cantonal law on the protection of the environment which specifies the national legislation gives the public the right to know about the risk situation in their neighbourhood. Therefore, the use of a GRIBS2- based Internet solution for an active information of the public is currently in preparation. | de |
