  1. Campus case: Experiences from a collaborative effort Jorge Hollman (UBC – I2C Team) & David Grigg (Campus & Community Planning)

  2. Acknowledgements Dr José Martí, Dr Carlos Ventura, Dr. Brian KlinkenbergDavid Grigg (Campus and Community Planning) Katherine Thibert, Hugon Juarez, Alejandro Cervantes, Lucy Liu, Nathan OzogMatt Shannon and Natanella Vukojevic (Records office), Erin Kastner and Doug Smith (UBC Utilities), John Manougian and Allan Fairbairn (Hospital), Rick Critchlow (Fire prevention services) Tom Ziemlanski and Monica Tzocas (IT Services) JIIRP – I2C members (Professors and students)

  3. UBC campus case study Why modeling UBC campus? • The UBC campus shares many attributes of a small city • 47000 daily transitory occupants • 10000 full time residents • own utilities providers • Information accessibility • Good starting point before modeling larger area, such as GVRD

  4. JIIRP-I2C team goals • Analysis of interdependencies among critical infrastructures • Develop methodologies of analysis • Concentrate UBC’s infrastructure information in a GIS • Analyze infrastructure interdependencies • Contribute to evolve from a culture of reaction into a culture of preparedness

  5. Campus & Community Planning motivations to collaborate • A fresh approach by academia to a problem barely identified by administration • Build a bridge between academic and the practitioners’ units (C&CP and Lands and Buildings dept.) • To strengthen resiliency of community to disaster • To build a model of a truly sustainable infrastructure for others to follow • To root out the weak links and repair, replace or strengthen

  6. Campus people involved

  7. General analysis flow

  8. Campus Networks: GIS

  9. Campus Fiber Network

  10. UBC earthquake damage assessment

  11. Scenario development: Snow-Wind storm

  12. Information Interdependencies analysis

  13. Challenges faced by JIIRP group • Information accessibility • Where is it? Who owns it? Are they willing or allowed to share it? • Information Redundancy & Standardization • Partially overlapping versions of the same information • Definition of a common conceptualization (Ontology) for the project • Critical knowledge is still mostly in the infrastructure managers’ heads • Human/organizational interdependencies tend to be minimized even though they are as important as the physical interdependencies

  14. Challenges faced by Campus & Community Planning • Discontinuity of the institutional memory • How does planning take a lead with departments who really own the problem? • Financing the fixes, from whose budget? • What are the challenges? We’re isolated from the City of Vancouver – we have to be self sufficient

  15. Successful Trust among parties Fluid ongoing dialogue Time availability Preventive culture philosophy Readiness to cooperate Eager to identify weaknesses to strengthen the system Efficient allocation of resources Unproductive Not enough trust Conflicting cultural background Security issues Not perceived as mutual benefit relation Contrasting conceptualizations Reactive culture philosophy Fear to recognize/share weaknesses Conflicting cultural background Research interactions

  16. Keys of successful associations • Develop a common Specification of a conceptualization (Ontology) for the problem • Develop trust among parties • Share common general objectives • Create valuable outcomes for all parties • Strong commitment from all parties • Perseverance

  17. Next phase – Selected Areas of GVRD • Our challenge is to build the same collaborative relation… • Your thoughts?
