Abstract

In Pursuit of Risk
Track: Disaster and Emergency Management
Authors: Marc Stanard, John Dorman

Improving the resilience of communities / states from natural hazards demands an integrated hazard risk management structure. GTMO has developed an integrated, digital display database and web-based system for storing and displaying natural hazard risks to the public, community officials and decision makers. The system combines robust enterprise geodatabases, natural hazard risk data-sets, and loss estimate procedures to enable the assessment of flood hazard risk at the building level.
