  • Abstract
    Climate change challenges our understanding of risk by modifying hazards and their interactions. Sudden increases in population and rapid urbanization are changing exposure to risk around the globe, making impacts harder to predict. RASOR will develop a platform to perform multi-hazard risk analysis for the full cycle of disaster management, including targeted support to critical infrastructure monitoring and climate change impact assessment. A scenario driven query system simulates future scenarios based on existing or assumed conditions and compares them with historical scenarios. Initially available over five case study areas, RASOR will ultimately offer global services to support in-depth risk assessment and full-cycle risk management.
