Physical exposure to natural hazards in Canada / M. Journeay, P. LeSueur, W. Chow, and C.L. Wagner. : M183-2/8892E-PDF
"Risk assessment is a key component of disaster risk reduction and policy development in areas prone to geohazards. However, these assessments often require considerable resources and effort to generate the necessary hazard, exposure, and vulnerability input information. This Open File provides an overview of the methods used to develop a national model of physical exposure intended to support geohazards risk assessments in Canada at the neighbourhood scale or larger, as well as the findings about the status of physical exposure and susceptibility to earthquake, flood, wildfire, hurricane, and landslide hazards in Canada"--Provided by publisher.
