| Zusammenfassung |
| Extreme natural events, like e.g. tsunamis or earthquakes, regularly lead to
catastrophes with dramatic consequences. In recent years natural disasters
caused hundreds of thousands of deaths, destruction of infrastructure,
disruption of economic activity and loss of billions of dollars worth of
property and thus revealed considerable deficits hindering their effective
management: Needs for stakeholders, decision-makers as well as for persons
concerned include systematic risk identification and evaluation, a way to
assess countermeasures, awareness raising and decision support systems to be
employed before, during and after crisis situations. The overall goal of this
study focuses on interdisciplinary integration of various scientific
disciplines to contribute to a tsunami early warning information system. In
comparison to most studies our focus is on high-end geometric and thematic
analysis to meet the requirements of small-scale, heterogeneous and complex
coastal urban systems. Data, methods and results from engineering, remote
sensing and social sciences are interlinked and provide comprehensive
information for disaster risk assessment, management and reduction. In
detail, we combine inundation modeling, urban morphology analysis, population
assessment, socio-economic analysis of the population and evacuation
modeling. The interdisciplinary results eventually lead to recommendations
for mitigation strategies in the fields of spatial planning or coping
capacity. |
