Abstract
The risk management for chemical emergency system is the system that can provide the footprint locations with important information such as material data safety sheet, emergency contacts, hours of operation concerning the location of facilities storing hazardous chemical materials and potential affected population and environment such as hospitals, schools and river. The main purpose of this research is to develop a GIS based decision support system (DSS) configured to improve the performance of decision maker responsible for chemical emergency prevention and planning. This system helps with decisions about the degree of hazard posed by the incident and this information could draw emergency response plans in order to prevent the incident
