PIARC's Technical Committee 1.5 - Disaster Management, has established a task related to the Use of Big Data and Social Networks for Disaster Management. This task considers new information evolutions such as big data and social networks. It involves an international literature review, collection and analysis of case studies and engagement with worldwide road administrations to learn from global experience to promote knowledge sharing.

As part of this research, an international survey was undertaken by TC 1.5 – WG1 (Working Group 1). The result was the production of a briefing note to provide an overview of the project methodology and summary of findings on survey results which came from 22 countries with a continent breakdown as follows; 8 (Asia), 8 (Europe), 5 (America) and 1 (Oceania).
