 | RÈsumÈ:
This dataset includes an estimation of the annual economical exposition to surges from tropical cyclones of Saffir-Simpson category 1.
It is based on four sources:
1) A compilation of best tracks dataset from WMO Regional Specialised Meteorological Centres (RSMCs) and Tropical Cyclone Warning Centres (TCWCs). As well as personal communication with Dr. Varigonda Subrahmanyam, Dr. James Weyman, Kiichi Sasaki, Philippe CAROFF, Jim Davidson, Simon Mc Gree, Steve Ready, Peter Kreft, Henrike Brecht.
2) A GIS modeling based on an initial equation from Greg Holland, which was further modified to take into consideration the movement of the cyclones through time.
3) A Digital Elevation Model (SRTM) at 90 m of resolution.
4) 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 UNEP/GRID-Europe for the Global Assessment Report on Risk Reduction (GAR). It was modeled using global data.
