abstract="The MEMbrain toolkit provides methodological and computer-based support for personnel responsible for the management of emergencies. It links geographical information system (GIS) technology to environmental monitoring, emergency preparedness planning, accident simulation, and crisis time communication.Tools were developed for municipal fire and rescue operations in the Finnish sub-project of MEMbrain. The users were given easy access to basic registers of population, building, tenement and property information, and state-of-the-art tools for risk assessment were integrated into the GIS framework.Chemical accidents can occur in varying conditions and evolve in numerous ways. The quantitative models incorporated into the RISKWIT consequence modelling software package cover the variations well, and make the reliable quantitative assessment of accident consequences possible.<p />",
