| Zusammenfassung |
| In recent years, awareness of a need for more effective disaster data
collection, storage, and sharing of analyses has developed in many parts of
the world. In line with this advance, Italian local authorities have
expressed the need for enhanced methods and procedures for post-event damage
assessment in order to obtain data that can serve numerous purposes: to
create a reliable and consistent database on the basis of which damage models
can be defined or validated; and to supply a comprehensive scenario of
flooding impacts according to which priorities can be identified during the
emergency and recovery phase, and the compensation due to citizens from
insurers or local authorities can be established. This paper studies this
context, and describes ongoing activities in the Umbria and Sicily regions of
Italy intended to identifying new tools and procedures for flood damage data
surveys and storage in the aftermath of floods. In the first part of the
paper, the current procedures for data gathering in Italy are analysed. The
analysis shows that the available knowledge does not enable the definition or
validation of damage curves, as information is poor, fragmented, and
inconsistent. A new procedure for data collection and storage is therefore
proposed. The entire analysis was carried out at a local level for the
residential and commercial sectors only. The objective of the next steps for
the research in the short term will be (i) to extend the procedure to other
types of damage, and (ii) to make the procedure operational with the Italian
Civil Protection system. The long-term aim is to develop specific
depth–damage curves for Italian contexts. |
