Abstract
The paper provides a description of the Web Based Decision Support Tool “WaveLet” for expected damage and loss assessment, as well as for the identification of effective response measures to strong earthquakes. This System takes advantages of GIS “Extremum”, “GloSeisRisk” and “EIG/GEM Infobook”. The “WaveLet” System development is supported by the World Agency on ary Monitoring and Earthquake Risk Reduction.
Keywords: Web based decision support tool; possible damage extent; seismic plex risk; expected social and economic losses due to strong earthquakes; effective response measures; geographical information system
Introduction
Strong earthquakes and secondary processes result in catastrophic human suffering, loss of property and other negative consequences. Over million people have died in earthquakes during the 20th century. Analysis of natural emergencies including earthquakes occurring all over the world during the last 5 years show that these types of emergencies are growing at an average rate of about 5% per year.
The recent disasters in El Salvador and India have reaffirmed the urgency
and importance of expected loss assessment due to strong earthquakes, and have shown once again that a
