| Zusammenfassung |
| Over the last ten years, a risk-based approach to manage natural hazards – termed
the risk concept – has been introduced to the management of natural hazards in Switzerland.
Large natural hazard events, new political initiatives and limited financial resources have
led to the development and introduction of new planning instruments and software tools that
should support natural hazard engineers and planners to effectively and efficiently deal
with natural hazards. Our experience with these new instruments suggests an improved
integration of the risk concept into the community of natural hazard engineers and planners.
Important factors for the acceptance of these new instruments are the integration of end-users
during the development process, the knowledge exchange between science, developers and
end-users as well as training and education courses for users. Further improvements require
the maintenance of this knowledge exchange and a mindful adaptation of the instruments to
case-specific circumstances. |
