Multi-hazard risk assessment
The world is confronted with a rapidly growing impact of disasters, due to many
factors that cause an increase in the vulnerability of society combined with an
increase in (hydrometeorological) hazard events related to climatic change. The
possible impacts of hazardous events are large, especially in developing countries
and governments have to incorporate risk reduction strategies in development
planning at different levels. The evaluation of the expected losses due to
hazardous events requires a spatial analysis, as all components of a risk
assessment differ in space and time
