Disaster Setting

4reating an environmental profile

of an urban area is a first andcritical step in understanding the

interactions between the local

environment and disaster

vulnerabilities it faces.

&n the map, mark all

vulnerabilities and ha5ards faced

by communities, business and

industry and other sectors

!co and ha5ard mapping is

a simple visual tool thatcreates an inventory of

environmental assets of an

urban area, and the

vulnerabilities and risks itfaces.

Stes to tae in EDP

• Identify the key stakeholders and establish their roles, resources, andconcerns.

• !valuate the ha5ards and risks that may result in emergency situations

in the community.• %ave stakeholders review their own plans to ensure a coordinated

response, and identify lacks and gaps.• 2atch these tasks to the resources of the identified participants.• Identify resources needed, make necessary changes to improve plans,

and integrate them into an overall community plan.•
