1 1 st Annual Conference of the International Society for Integrated Disaster Risk Management - IDRiM 2010 September 1-4, 2010, Vienna, Austria Development of A Rapid Typhoon Loss Estimation System in China Ying LI, Weihua FANG State Key Laboratory of Surface Processes and Resource Ecology Beijing Normal University Supported by National Key Technology R&D Programs of China (2006BAD20B03 and 2008BAK49B04)

2 Outline 1. Background 2. Data and Method 3. System Implementation 4. Further Study

3 1. Background Catastrophes in the past several years Early 2008 Winter Storm Great 5.12 Wenchuan Earthquake (2008) Qinghai Yushu Earthquake (2010) Zhouqu Flash-flood & Mudflow (2010) Rapid Loss Estimation System Rescue Resource Request Resource Optimization Government Assistance

4 1. Background To provide a web-based system for typhoon rapid loss estimation Easy to use web-based (B/S) system Hazard forecasting and monitoring: wind and rainfall Detailed inventory of population and property Resources query, mapping and allocation optimization Supported by MOST and to be deployed for MoCA, China

5 2. Data and Method Geographic Information System (GIS) Dataset Topography (elevation, slope, direction, etc.) River system, drainage boundary, river defense system Satellite-derived land-use dataset Administrative boundary (province, county, town, village)
