riverine flood-related HAZUS applications

2010-06-14T10:40:01-05:00

I am interested in riverine flood-related HAZUS applications in continental Southeastern Europe, namely Serbia and adjacent Balkan countries. I am particularly interested in finding sources of information related to structural vulnerability, ie depth damage curves for the structures characteristic for that region, or central Europe in general. Any information would be welcome. Thanks.

Web application which allows users to find out more information about the potential damage state of buildings in Haiti. The application allows users to search shaking intensity by address in Haiti by referencing USGS ShakeMaps, and it includes both French and English translations. The app can be found at:

HAZUS International?

2009-07-15T12:42:55-05:00

Hi,

Does anyone out there know if a new version of HAZUS is being created to handle international data? I get this notion from the presentation “Applying HAZUS Internationally” that indicates there may be enhancements made to make HAZUS available world wide. Is this the case?

Thanks,

International Input Data

2009-01-22T10:15:06-05:00

Regarding the input data used for the various models, is there a (default/general) list of information required? And if yes, does the list include where to obtain this information?
Schneider puts fourth several requirements in his presentation “Applying HAZUS Internationally”, but I was wondering if there was a more comprehensive list with potential sources? Received this request via email from a a PhD student at the Norwegian Uni. of Science and Technology
