ECO-DRR - Tsunamis frequency
EcoDRR global classification scheme based on spatial combination of ecosystem coverage and natural hazard physical exposure.
The physical exposure data-set shows the product of hazard frequency and people exposed to this hazard in the same 100 square kilometer cell.
For a specific natural hazard, a 0.01 degree resolution raster is generated, showing hazard annual frequency weighted with portion of pixel potentially affected.
Tsunamis annual frequency is based on a model which output raster shows expected affected percentage of each pixel over a 500 years return period.
Sources:
The dataset includes an estimate of tsunami frequency. It is based on two sources: 1) A comprehensive list of reports and scientific papers compiled and utilized in producing tsunami hazard maps as well as finding return periods of future events. 2) Applying numerical tsunami models and zooming on selected areas. Unit is expected affected percentage of each pixel over a minimum return period of 500 years.
This product was designed by International Centre for Geohazards /NGI for the Global Assessment Report on Risk Reduction (GAR). It was modeled using global data. Credit: GIS processing International Centre for Geohazards /NGI.
