Global Multihazard Frequency and Distribution
Entry ID:
CIESIN_CHRR_NDH_MULTI_HFD
Summary
Abstract:
Global Multihazard Frequency and Distribution is a 2.5 minute grid presenting a simple multihazard index based solely on summated single-hazard decile values. The hazards of interest include cyclones, droughts, earthquakes, floods, landslides, and volcanoes. This data set is further enriched by the inclusion of data pertaining to population, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and transportation ...
