Exposure and Vulnerability Assessment
Understanding the hazard alone is not enough to determine risk. It is also necessary to identify which elements may be affected and how vulnerable they are to each scenario.
This assessment determines how each scenario may affect exposed elements and establishes the basis for estimating social, economic, and environmental consequences.
At iVantise, we assess the exposure and vulnerability of:
-
People and communities
-
Buildings and urban areas
-
Transportation and hydraulic infrastructure
-
Economic activities
-
The environment and other assets
At iVantise, we turn hazard knowledge into effective risk management by assessing the exposure and vulnerability of people, geographic areas, and the economy to anticipate consequences and inform strategic decisions.
