Technical Name Climate Change Disaster Risk Map Platform
Project Operator National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction
Project Host 陳永明
Summary
The Climate Change Disaster Risk Map Platform is a geographic information system interface that combines flood hazard, vulnerability, and exposure under future climate change scenarios. It allows for the overlay of different layers of interest, providing users involved in national land planning, local adaptation, and industries with insights into future flood risks associated with climate change.
Scientific Breakthrough
The climate change risk estimation primarily uses the latest climate change precipitation estimation data to calculate the probability of future heavy rainfall as the flood hazard under future climate change. By combining flood hazards and flood potential maps with spatial information of areas of interest, the future climate change flood risk can be estimated. The future climate change hazard-vulnerability map can be used to assess the future climate change risks for different areas of interest.
Industrial Applicability
In response to the impacts of climate change and the global call for carbon reduction, industries will face both physical risks and transition risks related to climate change. Through the use of the Climate Change Disaster Risk Map Platform, industries can overlay and estimate their future physical risks using the platform's future hazard-vulnerability maps. This serves as a fundamental tool for industries in disclosing climate risks
