8 Backroud of the ESR 8 positio : CADANAV hazard mappi methodoloy elaborated at LMR Approach cosistet with the Swiss federal uidelies Rouh delieatio at reioal ad valley scales of the areas at risk to detect coflicts with lad use prelimiary maps Detailed hazard assessmet at local scale, accouti for the maitude ad mea retur period of evets hazard maps N 500 m Prelimiary map at reioal scale Prelimiary map at valley scale Hazard map at local scale 8

9 ESR 8 Poits to be tackled : Improved methodoloies for rockfall hazard ad risk mappi at reioal ad local scales to collect iformatio o preset methodoloies i Europe, with a particular emphasis o those that could be used with GIS; to work out procedures at reioal scale for a first rouh delieatio of the areas at risk, ad at local scale for a more detailed assessmet of rockfall hazard; to develop a methodoloy that takes ito accout the temporal probability ad volume of the evets as well as the spatial extet ad velocity of the rock falls; to evaluate the ifluece o lad-use plai ad risk of differet factors ad scearios, like the icrease i frequecy ad/or maitude of hazardous evets due to either atural (climate) or huma-iduced chaes Rem: The scope of ESR 7 (UPC) ad 8 positios should be well defied to avoid a too importat overlap of the researches 9
