Economical Exposition To Tsunamis

This dataset includes an estimation of the annual economical exposition to tsunamis. It is based on three sources: 1) A comprehensive list of reports and scientific papers compiled and utilized in producing tsunami hazard maps as well as finding return periods of future events. 2) Applying numerical tsunami models and zooming on selected areas. 3) A Global Domestic Product grid for the year 2010, provided by the World Bank. Unit is expected average annual GDP (2010 as the year of reference) exposed in (US $, year 2000 equivalent).

This product was designed by International Centre for Geohazards (NGI) for the Global Assessment Report on Risk Reduction (GAR). It was modeled using global data.
