A disaster risk score is a quantified indicator that measures the degree of risk a specific location faces from natural disasters. It integrates multiple disaster risk factors including earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, landslides, and volcanic eruptions into a 0-100 scale.
A high score (70-100) means the location faces multiple disaster risks with significant threat to life and property. A low score (0-30) indicates relatively low risk. A moderate score (30-70) means attention to specific disasters while others may pose low risk.
This score is used in home purchase decisions, business location selection, insurance premium determination, and public policy development. Accurate risk assessment improves disaster response capacity for individuals and society.
