Article for the Australian Journal of Emergency Management (AJEM), October 2019 ed. Lead authors were Department of Fire and Emergency Services (WA), co-authored by GA. This article includes discussion of how GA's data and products - specifically felt report data and trial ShakeMap and Did-You-Feel-It products were used by DFES in the days following the Magnitude 6.6 earthquake which occurred 210km offshore from Broome, WA, on 14 July 2019. The data and products contributed to DFES' understanding of what local communities experienced, how they responded, and the extent of building and infrastructure damage caused by the earthquake. This understanding will contribute to DFES' community awareness programs focusing on safety and preparedness, and to DFES' own response and recovery planning.
