A community must have a high level of preparedness pertaining to natural hazards as well as basic knowledge on them. If a community is very clear on what actions to take in an event of a natural hazard, then certain procedures such as evacuations would go smoothly. Also, with basic knowledge, more people will be aware of the seriousness of the hazard and this can help to save many lives. Preparedness plays an important role as well, because in an evacuation, people cannot lag behind just because they are packing their valuables or trying to save their property. For example, in the event of Hurricane Katrina, many residents in Louisiana were not taking it seriously, because they have survived many hurricanes before in their homes. However, due to the massive scale of the hurricane, homes in its path were all destroyed and numerous ignorant people perished. Another example would be the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami: Many locals and tourists did not know why the seawater was receding and instead of running to high ground immediately, they went to 'inspect' the shoreline. When the tsunami wave arrived and they started to panic, it was already too late. This shows how important preparedness and basic knowledge can save numerous lives in a natural hazard.
Non-structural mitigation measures are:- a.) Hazard mapping:- a hazard map will illustrate the areas vulnerable to the cyclone in any given year. it is a effective mitigation tool. b.)Land use control designed so that least critical activities are placed in vulnerable areas.Location of settlements in the flood plains is of utmost risk.Vulnerable areas should be kept for parks,grazing or play grounds. c.)Cyclone fore casting and warning :- better forecasting for cyclones ,early and timely warning to the people who are likely to be affected leads to better preparedness and reduced impact to life,property, livelihood and livelihood and infrastructure.

Key components of a Disaster Management Information System would be a database of a) Hazard Assessment Mapping b) Vulnerability Assessment c) Demographic Distribution d) Infrastructure, Lifelines and Critical Facilities e) Logistics and Transportation Routes f) Human and Material Response Resources g) Communication Facilities The usage of Disaster Management Information Systems (DMIS) would be in 3 contexts · Preparedness planning · Mitigation · Response & recovery The hazard and vulnerability assessments and mapping components of a DMIS are the cornerstone of preparedness planning as well as planning and implementation of a mitigation program. All data is of critical use in the preparedness plan as well as in the actual response operations. It must be recognized that the development of these databases in country has to be built bottom up from the lowest administrative unit in country i.e. the sub-district and district corresponding to the level of the disaster preparedness plan. The district databases would feed into the state/provincial database and then into the national database.

Being prepared in hazard situations can be vital to survival. Some of the advantages of adopting a comprehensive approach for all hazard preparedness include: not being caught by surprise, always being ready in case of an emergency, and ensuring supplies are stocked while available as in an emergency supplies may be limited.
Preparedness can be measured by time and money. How quickly are items produced? When are items delivered to a customer? How much does it cost to produce an item? All of these can help measure preparedness of a company's products and sales.

Mitigation attempts to eliminate hazard risk by reducing either the likelihood or the consequences of the risk associated with the particular hazard. Preparedness seeks to improve the abilities of agencies and individuals to respond to the consequences of a disaster event once the disaster has occurred.
