Analytical reports on natural hazards, vulnerabilities and disaster risks in Europe based on the DRMKC - Risk Data Hub
Metadados da publicação
The EU Disaster Risk Management Knowledge Centre (DRMKC) is developing and maintaining the Risk Data Hub (RDH): a web platform, for collecting, managing and sharing disaster risk as well as damage and loss data. The RDH aims at supporting the implementation of the EU Strategy on Climate Change Adaptation and the understanding of the EU risk landscape as part of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and at facilitating reporting by Member States, to help meet the objectives of Decision No 1313/2013/EU of the Union Civil Protection Mechanism. The development of the platform is based on the results of ‘’Needs and Gap analysis” performed as part of the preparation of the European Commission Staff Working Document – ‘’Overview of Natural and Man-made Disaster Risks the European Union may face’’ (latest two versions 20171 , 20202 ). The RDH adopts the comprehensive framework of policies and guidelines, data sharing initiatives and spatial data infrastructures with the purpose of setting the bases for knowledge for DRM at local, regional, national and Europe-wide level. The platform hosts, curates and disseminates data, tools and methodologies for Disaster Risk Management (DRM). Among its key functionalities, it offers an open-source methodology for risk assessment as well as an authoritative loss and damage database that can provide an analysis of the losses due to disasters at European level. The Risk Analysis and Disaster Loss data portals are hosting open data and analysis with European wide coverage. They offer an overview on available and commonly used data in terms of risk components (hazards, exposure and vulnerability that in turn are used to estimate an overall risk indicator) for the risk analysis module and disaster loss and damage data (fatalities, economic losses, non-economic losses) for the disaster loss data module. These data and European-wide analysis and indicators are managed by the DRMKC RDH administrators and are freely available for download. The RDH provides decision makers with access to robust statistics and analytics for evidence-based policy formulation. Post-event records and pre-event assessments support the development of decision-making tools such as Cost Benefit Analysis. Furthermore, identifying the geographically located drivers of disasters (exposure and vulnerability), the RDH allows to intertwine the global/international policies and the local scale of practice and implementation. This report puts together five analytical reports based on the analysis of the data available within the RDH. It aims at providing a glimpse of the multiple analysis that can be derived from the intersection of different datasets on hazard, exposure, vulnerability and disaster damage and loss data hosted on the platform.
