Zusammenfassung |
In the framework of the German Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System
(GITEWS) the assessment of tsunami risk is an essential part of the overall
activities. The scientific and technical approach for the tsunami risk
assessment has been developed and the results are implemented in the national
Indonesian Tsunami Warning Centre and are provided to the national and
regional disaster management and spatial planning institutions in Indonesia.
The paper explains the underlying concepts and applied methods and shows some
of the results achieved in the GITEWS project (Rudloff et al., 2009). The
tsunami risk assessment has been performed at an overview scale at
sub-national level covering the coastal areas of southern Sumatra, Java and
Bali and also on a detailed scale in three pilot areas. The results are
provided as thematic maps and GIS information layers for the national and
regional planning institutions. From the analyses key parameters of tsunami
risk are derived, which are integrated and stored in the decision support
system of the national Indonesian Early Warning Centre. Moreover, technical
descriptions and guidelines were elaborated to explain the developed
approach, to allow future updates of the results and the further development
of the methodologies, and to enable the local authorities to conduct tsunami
risk assessment by using their own resources. |
