Tsunami risk in Indonesia – an interdisciplinary approach towards tsunami warning and evacuation.

Kurzfassung

The overall goal of this presentation focuses on interdisciplinary integration of various scientific disciplines to contribute to a tsunami early warning information system. In omparison to most studies our focus is on high-end geometric and thematic analysis to meet the requirements of smallscale, heterogeneous and complex coastal urban systems. Data, methods and results from engineering, remote sensing and social sciences are interlinked and provide comprehensive information for disaster risk assessment, management and reduction. In detail, we combine inundation modeling, urban morphology analysis, population assessment, socio-economic analysis of the population and evacuation modeling. The interdisciplinary results eventually lead to recommendations for mitigation strategies in the fields of spatial planning or coping capacity.
