Perspectives On Development And Current Applications For Catastrophe Planning
RISK ASSESSMENT, MODELING AND DECISION SUPPORT: STRATEGIC DIRECTIONS(2008)
摘要
The commentaries in this chapter represent three important perspectives: academic research in earthquake engineering; the
federal agency that sponsors and oversees HAZUS®; and expert users. Rachel Davidson fills in some gaps in the background and suggests directions for the development of HAZUS®, including improving its mitigation planning capability and structural inventory data, as well as providing for web-based
user overrides based on post-catastrophe observations. Phil Schneider presents several examples of user-driven developments
in HAZUS® and the role of users in pushing forward improvements and enhancements that are currently in the works, by members of the
self-established user/developer consortia. Finally, Subrahmanyam Muthukumar, an expert HAZUS® user, confirms Schneider’s proposition that user input based on experience with applications of the software provide significant
pull for its development. Muthukumar suggests several improvements to HAZUS®, including more dynamic inventory data, better cost-benefit analysis capability, and lifeline/network models integrated into
the overall system.
