Abstract text:
While the overall goal is to prevent disasters as much as possible, the goal of mitigation is to reduce the risks. That is why the risk must be quantifiable in the decision support system. Geographic Informations System (GIS) support may be used for all the disaster prevention phases, but what we are concerned with here is the use of GIS for physical planning in the mitigation phase. In this paper we present a methodology and several case studies of using GIS as a tool for awareness and mitigation of seismic effects of possible future events in the urban area.
