Comprehensive Disaster Risk Management Standards for Hospitals

Background and Objective: Hospitals play an important role in protecting the health and survival of people during disasters. Despite the development of risk management programs worldwide in recent years, hospital preparedness in disasters is low and one reason for that is the lack of hospital standards for disaster preparedness. This study aims to develop hospital accreditation standards for ho...

INSTALLATIONS AND WATERSHEDS: An Examination of Changes in Water Management on Army Installations

3d-gis for Barrier Lake Disaster Reduction and Risk Management

On May 12, 2008 a large earthquake occurred in Wenchuan, resulting in significant casualties and enormous property loss, and shocked the world. Then the Tangjiashan barrier lake caused by earthquake, made a serious threat to 1.3 million people living downstream. From its formation to being successfully disposed, the entire emergency management of Tangjiashan barrier lake lasted about a month. I...

3d Spatial Data Integration for Avalanche Risk Management

The southern part of the Alps is interested by frequent avalanche phenomena. It is very important to provide a suitable method to manage avalanche risk. The usual approach is based on the mapping of the avalanches occurred on the "Carta di Localizzazione Probabile delle Valanghe" (C.L.P.V. Possible Avalanche Location Map). Modern methods are based on statistical approaches or on the evaluation ...

The Role of Quantitative Risk Assessment in Improving Hazardous Installations Siting: A Case Study

Safety distance has already been a main measurement for the hazard control of chemical installations interpreted to mean providing space between the hazardous installation and different types of targets. But, the problem is how to determine the enough space. This study considers the application of quantitative risk assessment to evaluating a compressed natural gas station site and to identi...
