  • Abstract
    The purpose of this paper is to develop an emergency response model through systematic analysis on emergency logistics system and its operation. The origin and characteristics of emergency logistics are explained and contents and structural pattern of emergency logistics system are also analyzed. By studying operation of emergency logistics system and the general response process of disaster relief, we summarize those key measures concerning effective operation of emergency logistics system and handling emergency incidents. The emergency response model could assist emergency management department and authority in dealing with emergency incidents and help reduce damage and loss to a minimum level.
